#10824: WRT400N 5GHz Radio Not Working
--------------------------+-----------------------------------
Reporter: hammmy@… | Owner: developers
Type: defect | Status: reopened
Priority: normal | Milestone: Barrier Breaker 14.07
Component: base system | Version: Backfire 10.03.1 RC6
Resolution: | Keywords: WRT400N 5GHz
--------------------------+-----------------------------------
Comment (by hammmy):
Okay, I've burned up a morning trying to get this sorted. No luck so far
but here's what I have:
The fix in Backfire was to change the regulatory.bin file.
The fix in Attitude Adjustment was to delete PASSIVE-SCAN and NO-IBSS from
the regulatory database file for channel 5170-5250
(https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/32126).
Probably, these were the same fixes but the problem was that the
regulatory database file moved or got renamed from one release to the
other. Now, this appears to have happened again in Barrier Breaker but I
can't find where that regulatory database is located now.
Jow posted a reghack utility that "replaces the regulatory domain rules in
the driver binaries
with less restrictive ones. The current version also lifts the 5GHz radar
channel restrictions in ath9k."
(http://luci.subsignal.org/~jow/reghack/README.txt). The reghack itself
is located one directory up at that URL. My vague grasp of the issues
(PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS, NO-IR) leads me to think that Jow is referencing
this with "lifts the radar restrictions" but I'm not sure and I'm hesitant
to hack this in when I don't know what I'm doing.
In short, please help!
