Defining AP channel at Onion Omega 2+



  • I tried to define static AP channel. As I understand it defined in
    /etc/config/wireless:
    option channel 'auto'
    I changed it to '1'.
    uci show wireless print me:
    config wifi-device 'radio0'
    option type 'ralink'
    option variant 'mt7628'
    option country 'US'
    option hwmode '11g'
    option htmode 'HT20'
    option channel '1'
    option disabled '0'
    option device_mode 'apsta'
    option op_mode 'preference'

    But see AP on channel 12, configuration still not works.
    Some idea?
    Thank you, Shimon



  • @Shimon-Filtzer take a look at the OpenWrt docs https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wifi/basic there are some restrictions on what you can select. Since the warp core driver is not documented or open source it may not implement all functions/parameters but we cannot tell.



  • Dear crispyoz! Thank you for answer. I saw the document, but as you wrote " Since the warp core driver is not documented or open source it may not implement all functions", it's a current status. Interesting, that in 2016, was a similar issue: https://community.onion.io/topic/1138/connecting-the-omega2-to-wifi-channels-12-to-14-for-non-us-users

    I think, RnD team must to know, when we change option country, or option htmode, or option channel parameters in file /etc/confog/wireles, system behavior becomes unstable.
    Every 5 seconds the system freezes and does not respond on ping for 1-2 seconds.
    My problem, that sometime system wakes up on Channels 10/11/12, but we can not use these channels, according to regulation acts.
    In case, that issue hasn't solution, we can not use Onion Omega in our product.
