5 GHz AP with 80 MHz

[castillofrancodamian]

How do I test AP mode on 80 MHz? The AP that is generated in Arch Linux with KDE plasma is only 20 MHz. I also cannot access the internet from the connected client. I have dnsmasq and hostapd installed.

Hi @castillofrancodamian

Sorry about the delay. I've been busy.

Let's start with making sure the driver is configured correctly:

go to the driver directory and:

$ sudo ./edit-options.sh

that will bring up the file called 8812au.conf . This file allows you to set module parameters and for a 80 MHz channel width in the 5 GHz band, you will need rtw_vht_enable=2 on the options line:

options 8812au rtw_switch_usb_mode=1 rtw_vht_enable=2 rtw_dfs_region_domain=1 rtw_country_code=US

8812au.conf is part of the documentation for the driver. Please read it all and let me know if you think it can be better.

@morrownr

[castillofrancodamian]

@morrownr This is the configuration line in edit-options.sh.

Report?

Please post a copy of the hostapd.conf that you are using.

@morrownr This file contains the configuration that is included when installing the hostapd package. It has not been modified. What I wanted to know is if it is a configuration problem or the controller cannot output in 80 MHz.

[morrownr]

What I wanted to know is if it is a configuration problem or the controller cannot output in 80 MHz.

It is a configuration problem. An adapter with a rtl8812au chipset and this driver most certainly can support 80 MHz channel width. Read the issue here where I have been posting about AP mode. Note the speeds I post about when using 5 GHz in AP mode.

This file contains the configuration that is included when installing the hostapd package. It has not been modified.

Whenever CRL changes, hostapd needs to be # restarted to take the new CRL into use.

If the values do # not match, the certificate verification will fail, rejecting the user. # This option allows hostapd to match every individual field in the right order # against the DN of the subject in the client certificate. # # For example, check_cert_subject=C=US/O=XX/OU=ABC/OU=XYZ/CN=1234 will check # every individual DN field of the subject in the client certificate. If OU=XYZ # comes first in terms of the order in the client certificate (DN field of # client certificate C=US/O=XX/OU=XYZ/OU=ABC/CN=1234), hostapd will reject the # client because the order of 'OU' is not matching the specified string in # check_cert_subject. # # This option also allows '*' as a wildcard. This option has some limitation. # It can only be used as per the following example. # # For example, check_cert_subject=C=US/O=XX/OU=Production* and we have two # clients and DN of the subject in the first client certificate is # (C=US/O=XX/OU=Production Unit) and DN of the subject in the second client is # (C=US/O=XX/OU=Production Factory).

The hostapd.conf is the one you are using? If it is, we have work to do. You can't do 5 GHz, 80 MHz channel width with channel 1. I see a lot of problems in that file.

Let recommend this:

https://github.com/morrownr/USB-WiFi

That is the Main Menu for this site. Scroll down until menu item 9. That is the AP guide. In that file you will find example hostapd.conf files for both bands. Study it and get back to me.

@morrownr I have tried what the guide says but I cannot activate an AP in 5 GHz.

Hmmm...

The main reason for setting up an AP like this with hostapd is to be able to get maximum performance. Unfortunately, it can be a little complicated. Think of the guide as something will work if everything is like in the guide. I think you mentioned using Arch on x86_64. That is different than a RasPi4B with RasPiOS.

What can matter? The networking. Did you shutdown Network Manager? If can work with NM still active but we need to exclude the interface that hostapd will be using. It could be timing. It could one little typo in the numerous text files. It appeared that getting an interface up was a problem... run iw dev and let's check the interface.

I'm sure we can sort this out but patience will be required.

Another possibility is that your regd settings preclude transmission in the 5G band. Run the command 'iw dev' to see the device name. My system has the line "Interface wls1" and shows phy#2. Next get the settings for that device with 'iw phy2 info'. On my system, the 5G band has the following logged: Frequencies:

[morrownr]

In the first message in this thread, there is a pic of a window after AP Configuration . What am I looking at in that pic? That is not configuring hostapd.

[castillofrancodamian]

It is the KDE plasma network manager that allows you to create access points. I still followed the steps in your guide to configure hostapd manually and it is not working.

[morrownr]

I still followed the steps in your guide to configure hostapd manually and it is not working.

I understand. I have a rather limited knowledge of how the networking is handled in Arch so my ability to help further is rather limited. I appreciate you trying to help test AP mode.

[castillofrancodamian]

@morrownr I was already able to make an 80 MHz access point on 5 GHz. The test was on a netbook with USB 2.0 and Debian 12.5.

I tried to check if the 20 and 40 MHz bandwidths work and they don't work. It continues broadcasting at 80 MHz.

This is a driver option (module parameter) issue.

options 8812au rtw_switch_usb_mode=2 rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_dfs_region_domain=1 rtw_country_code=AR rtw_vht_enable=2

Change rtw_vht_enable=2 to rtw_vht_enable=1" The ONLY time to usertw_vht_enable=2` is when you want 80 MHz on the 5 GHz band.

Channel 132 not work.

This may be an issue with regdb. What channels are allowed in Argentina? And does the current regdb reflect what the law allows?

[castillofrancodamian]

@morrownr I didn't know that information and it's good to clarify it. I changed that setting to rtw_vht_enable=1 and it now works on 20 MHz and 40 MHz.

Channel 165 - 20 MHz.

channel=165
# Channel width (0 = 40 MHz. 1 = 80 Mhz)
#vht_oper_chwidth=0
# VHT center channel (chan + 6)
vht_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx=165

Channel 132 - 40 MHz.

channel=132
# Channel width (0 = 40 MHz. 1 = 80 Mhz)
vht_oper_chwidth=0
# VHT center channel (chan + 6)
vht_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx=134

Channel 132 not work.

This may be an issue with regdb. What channels are allowed in Argentina? And does the current regdb reflect what the law allows?

The device does not support channel 132 at 80 MHz viewing iw list. Apparently the culprit is channel 144. It is also not possible to connect to a network that uses that channel and bandwidth in client mode.

The device does not support channel 132 at 80 MHz viewing iw list. Apparently the culprit is channel 144. It is also not possible to connect to a network that uses that channel and bandwidth in client mode.

Ch 144 used to be handled the same in the US but has been open for use for years now. I just went and took a look at the AR info in db.txt. I suspect it is dated and needs to be updated. That is your job since you volunteered .

Seriously, there is no magic that keeps db.txt updated. It takes a person in each country to bring the changes to the attention of the maintainer. Can I forward you information on how to get started on getting AR updated?

Can I forward you information on how to get started on getting AR updated?

Maybe another time. I'm still testing the controller. And I have to report that there are problems. And it's high latency (again).

I want you to understand that I am staying on this issue.

My most recent testing has been with as clean of a setup as possible to eliminate causes other than the driver. I just ran the following:

$ ping 192.168.1.1 PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.55 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.65 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=1.63 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=1.54 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=1.59 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=1.58 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=7 ttl=64 time=1.60 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=8 ttl=64 time=1.50 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=9 ttl=64 time=1.58 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=10 ttl=64 time=1.58 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=11 ttl=64 time=1.51 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=12 ttl=64 time=1.54 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=13 ttl=64 time=1.50 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=14 ttl=64 time=1.62 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=15 ttl=64 time=1.62 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=16 ttl=64 time=1.57 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=17 ttl=64 time=1.62 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=18 ttl=64 time=1.54 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=19 ttl=64 time=1.47 ms ^C --- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics --- 19 packets transmitted, 19 received, 0% packet loss, time 18027ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.468/1.566/1.647/0.048 ms

This was with my router on channel 116. There is nothing else in this area on that channel so congestion cannot be a problem. The iperf3 server is in the router as it runs OpenWRT.

My plan is leave this issue open when I make the repo open to the public. I can contact a couple of individuals that are better than me at working this issue.

This can be closed as it was a configuration issue.
