Wifi is not activated after reboot

Hello, :)
I own a TL-WR1043ND v.1.2(de) with Gargoyle 1.5.9.
I have configured the wifi network, which works correctly, except for the fact that whenever the router reboots, the interface is not brought up automatically.
If I connect via SSH and issue "wifi", it is activated and works correctly.

This happens both when using command "reboot" at the shell and with scheduled reboots.

Here is the content of /etc/config/wireless (I removed sensible information):

Code: Select all

config wifi-device 'radio0'
	option type 'mac80211'
	option macaddr 'xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'
	option hwmode '11ng'
	list ht_capab 'SHORT-GI-40'
	list ht_capab 'DSSS_CCK-40'
	option channel '6'
	option htmode 'HT40-'

config wifi-iface 'ap_g'
	option device 'radio0'
	option mode 'ap'
	option network 'lan'
	option ssid 'abc'
	option encryption 'psk2'
	option key 'longpassphrase...'
Thank you for your help!

Save your config, reset the router to defaults, and re-configure
just the wireless portion and do a couple of reboots.

If it works, something is damaged/corrupted in your old config.

That should be your first test.

Next test if above doesn't work - reflash version 1.5.9 over itself
and then re-configure just wireless from scratch, reboot, test.
