LibreELEC 10 beta 5Ghz wifi issue

  • I am not sure if this is the right place or not, but I just installed the beta, 9.95.1, and I am experiencing the same issues with 5Ghz WiFi. All i am seeing is 2.4Ghz. To fix this issue, I need to edit the following file:

    /storage/.config/modprobe.d/cfg80211.conf

    and enter:

    options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=US

    I am not sure this is a bug or not, but just figured i would report it.

  • The regulatory domain can be set via Settings -> LibreELEC Settings -> Network.

    After an update I have the same probem.

    The Wireles Regulatory Domain can be set to a specific country in the settings, but after a reboot the change is gone and "not set" again...

    My AC9560 CVSi module (wifi+bt) is crap as well when using 5Ghz, 2.4Ghz is okay as is BT. I have a Asrock J5005, gigabit is my main network connection.

    However, the same thing is happening when I use Ubuntu 20.04 on the same machine. So it's likely a Linux driver problem of some sort.

  • Please create the modified udev rule:

    Code
    echo 'KERNEL=="regulatory*", ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="platform", RUN+="/usr/lib/iw/setregdomain"' > /storage/.config/udev.rules.d/60-iw-regdomain.rules

    Remove any manual changes, set the Regdomain in LibreELEC-Settings, reboot and check with:

    Code
    iw reg get
