> I am experienced with openwrt (6 Years) and wrote the parts of wiki-
ea4500. (how to install without serial). I am sure wifi setup is correct.
Tested some settings ht20/ht40, lower txpower etc. Stock firmware works
correctly for me.(just tested it one day)

Maybe it is a firmware/driver issue. As you can see in the logs of other
users, the version of AP firmware is 5.2.8.17. However, the latest
[http://downloads.linksys.com/downloads/firmware/FW_EA3500_1.1.40.162464_prod.zip
EA3500 stock firmware] includes AP firmware version 5.3.0.6.
Unfortunately, I'm not a programmer so I'm not able to adapt mac80211 to
work with the stock AP firmware 5.3.0.6 or change the stock GPL wlan
driver to work with OpenWrt.
