Try down this page a bit, you just need to copy the firmware-5.bin and reboot 
usually.

Hi Ben,

Can you tell me how I can compile ath10k-ct firmware version present
in 18.06.2 into the latest snapshot?

I want to try and see if it's firmware related.

Awesome to know you had 64+ stations connected to your firmware.

Thanks for the help.

Hello,

You could try using the ath10k-ct firmware that does NOT work for you (18.06.2) 
in
the latest snapshot.  If problem still happens, then it is firmware related,
and I can then build you a series of images so you can do a bisect to find what
commit fixes the issue if you really want to know what is the fix.

Otherwise, maybe something else fixed the problem.  For what it is worth, we
have regularly done 64+ stations connected to our ath10k firmware/driver
for years.

Thanks,
Ben

Hi all,

I am using:

ath10k-firmware-qca9984 - 2018-12-16-211de167-1
kmod-ath10k - 4.14.109+4.19.23-1-5

## Problem
I am able to associate and authenticate many clients. Max I tested was
15 clients.
But when more than 4 clients start to play video stream (youtube,
twitch, netflix):

1. all the clients loose internet connectivity
2. all of them are _de-authenticated_

3. when trying to reconnect, they connect but are _disassociated_ immediately.

4. internet on the AP works. (I am able to ping google.com)

## Firmware and OS this problem occurs
- ath10k + 18.06.2 = yes, there is this problem
- ath10k + snapshot = yes, there is this problem
- ath10k-ct + 18.06.2 = yes, similar problem occurs
(https://github.com/greearb/ath10k-ct/issues/82)
- ath10k-ct + snapshot = no, works fine

### More logs
I noticed that the some devices stay connected :man_shrugging: and
when these connected devices make a dns request, the request is
reaching the DNS server but the AP is not receiving response.

I ran ping on *one device* and captured packets on AP (two interfaces):
- tcpdump -i wlan0-ap
- tcpdump -i br-lan

ping google.com:
https://gist.github.com/ironpillow/50cb0e2010ac5bc9acc7abc7e20ab910
ping 8.8.8.8: 
https://gist.github.com/ironpillow/97cb3dd6eb8e9d028a8231f142fae01f

Packets are not reaching wifi wlan0-ap interface.

I am happy to run more tests.

Any advice?
