LibreELEC 10 beta 5Ghz wifi issue

TheGmer · March 19, 2021 at 9:46 PM

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.

Likewise, on several different hardware.

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
