I have a 1.7... Perhaps there's a different driver used?
Take a look in /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0
I have the ath9k directory there, and disable_ani is present.
The furthest I can get down that tree is /sys/kernel. There's no debug directory in there:

Code: Select all

root@bridge:/sys/kernel# ls -l
-r--r--r--    1 root     root          4096 Feb 22 15:13 fscaps

No, I haven't tried that. Worth a go I suppose. I think I'm going to revert to stock and try that too (I flashed gargoyle without even trying stock).

I remember reading about wireless N trouble and gargoyle a while back and have no N devices anyways... The advice I've read has been to stay at 1.5.6 until wireless stuff gets resolved in openwrt, so I'm there now.

I'm hoping things stabilize by the time gargoyle 1.5.10(?) is out, as far as openwrt is concerned. On the gargoyle side, things are working great on my end.

Seen this on another forum (the openwrt bugtracker) and I've tried it. seems to be working for me (see last post):

https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/11862
Please do following for working corrections:
SSH to your Router with "Putty" or something like that....then type in
uci set wireless.radio0.noscan=1
uci commit
reboot
This is working for me on WR1043ND and WDR4300 (different Atheros Chipsets)
I also did not have the debug directory suggested earlier for disable-ani.

This seems to have fixed the message in the log.

Setting noscan=1 hasn't made any difference to the wireless throughput or the stability. I've satisfied that I've tried all the options to get my two 1043NDs working together without any success, so I'm going to return them for a refund (thankyou UK distance selling regulations :) ).

I'm going to buy two Asus RT-N16's instead and install Shibby's Tomato on them. A bit more money for the hardware, but well worth it to get back to Tomato's rock solid stability and performance. I want to set up the units and then completely forget about them. That simply isn't possible with Gargoyle on the v1.10 1043ND at the moment - they were needing attention of some form or another at least once a day.
