If you're using the built-in wifi on the 3B, then I'm pretty sure it's 2.4GHz only. You'll need to use an add-on USB wifi adapter if you want 5GHz (maybe SDIO is also possible). Tim. On 17/11/2023 15:53, basti wrote: Hello, i have a Raspi 3B+ and try to connect to WIFI 5G. The Access

I could be wrong, but I also thought that processor errata fixes/workarounds for 64 bit capable ARM processors are only (consistently) applied to the 64 bit kernel. i.e. if you run a 64-bit-capable ARM processor such as the A53 with a 32-bit Linux kernel, then you might hit unpatched

I think you'll need to use wireshark to figure out what's different (if anything) about the two sets of dhcp requests. You might want to run wireshark on another box with two NICs bridged (cubox into one, router into the other) to ensure you see unicast as well as broadcast traffic.
