Linksys WRT32X (radio2)almost always ends up in the "Wireless is disabled or not associated" state

Open Einic opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

I tried installing OpenWrt Reboot v18.06.4 on my WRT32X. This alone has made the router go from shutting off the wireless interfaces after a few hours to bringing them back up on its own after a bit (but not before causing all the devices on wifi to choke for a few minutes.) I can share/pm logs.

Disable radio2 and forget about it, see the "Note for DFS of WRT3200ACM" on the README.

Agreed.. disable radio2. Not recommended.

Radio2 (5g) and radio0 (5g) are very unstable, often unable to connect, unable to connect to the Internet

https://github.com/kaloz/mwlwifi/issues/280#issuecomment-580008509 Will not solve your main problem but at least you could use dfs without disabling mwifiex. Your issue also happens to me but is very rare to happen.

Radio2 works fine for me. I'm using it as DMZ "guest" wireless on 5.2 GHz.
