I can't add value to this thread but I am pleased to see the 5ghz band connection speeds being addressed.

I'm not going to mess with my C7 using the command line as it's my only decent router. I've sold/loaned/traded my wdr4300s.

thanks for your work.

In my opinion it is rare that gargoyle introduces extra wireless problems.

Can you do:
gpkg list-installed

And then look for the kmod-ath10k.
I'll see what version it is and if there is a later version available. If there is I'll look at getting it to you for testing.

Leaving this here for later.
Hi Lantis,

I grep the kmod-ath10k and it has a 3.18 version on it,

opkg list_installed | grep kmod-ath10k
kmod-ath10k - 3.18.23+2015-03-09-3 42d23b9f92ee71af0952fe64712159a5


Thanks

that is the latest firmware. There are later versions but they are incompatible with 3.18 kernel.

you could try backporting it yourself.
