Topic: SOLVED TP-Link TD-W9980B with VDSL2 G-Vector

The content of this topic has been archived on 2 May 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

Hi everyone,
need help with my 9980b. It's running the W8980-trunk-version of OpenWrt with another xdsl-firmware file.

OpenWrt Designated Driver 49928 / LuCI Master (git-16.248.37139-a69bd42)

Looks like the cheap router works like a charme with VDSL2 G-Vector.

But there's no wireless available in luci and I need help to get almost the 2.4GHz WIFI work. Hardware is recognized:

root@OpenWrt:~# lspci
00:0e.0 Wireless controller: Lantiq Wave300 PSB8224 [Hyperion III] (rev 01)
01:00.0 PCI bridge: Device 1bef:0011 (rev 01)
02:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)

Can anyone give me a hint for what is to do?

Regards
Florian

Thank you very much. Kernel modules weren't installed. After installation of them and reboot 2.4GHz works fine.
After all I've read 5 GHz didn't work.
