CF953AX iw data

[codebling]

Posting this since it is slightly different than home/iw_list/COMFAST_CF-951AX.txt.

Firmware date is 2022-11-09, 7 days before the most recent (relevant) Mediatek firmware update. Can provide update after upgrading.

Cursory trials show 6Ghz frequencies appear to work despite being labelled "disabled" but have not confirmed.

Ok so same frequencies as morrownr's 951 dump but with the same "EHT Iftypes" as mine. Wonder if "disabled" in channels might just be a driver quirk with 6.0 kernel. I can check next time I restart my system.

[morrownr]

@codebling @travlytle

Wonder if "disabled" in channels might just be a driver quirk with 6.0 kernel.

I don't think it is a driver quirk but rather the reg db. WiFi 6e has 3 different power levels that are identified and it is not clear to me if the rules and regulations are fully in place in all countries. If I take a vacation to a country where everything seems to be sorted out, such as FR or DE, then things show up closer to what we would expect. I'm just going to keep an eye on the situation.

[morrownr]

@codebling @travlytle

Would either you like to write a review of cf-953ax? Main Menu item 2 is the list of adapters with in-kernel drivers and the 953ax sure could use a review or two. I have a 951ax and I posted a review but I don't have a 953ax.

Nick

[codebling]

@morrownr you are correct about the reg db. Once I set my region, the frequencies no longer showed up as disabled.

Do you (or anyone) know what "EHT" is in the iw info? Could it be "EHT" from the 802.11be (Wifi 7) draft?

I had vague plans to homebrew a new router with the 953ax until I realized that I would likely have to backport the driver to OpenWRT. I haven't used the device much but I can give it a more serious test and perhaps write a review. I do get an initialization error related to Bluetooth, but then the endpoints show up, so I suspect they might work. I can give that a try

I see that one of your main cons for 951 was that it wouldn't work with USB extensions or hubs. I had no issues with this with the 953. I have in the past experienced limitations with the physical length of cabling for USB devices, but I'm guessing this is not the case for you.

[morrownr]

I had vague plans to homebrew a new router with the 953ax until I realized that I would likely have to backport the driver to OpenWRT.

Hold on. Will you be using OpenWRT 22.03.x or a current snapshot? The reason I ask is that the packages you need to install are slightly different owing to a change in the location of the firmware but the bottom line is that the OpenWRT devs have already backported the driver to earlier kernels for OpenWRT.

perhaps write a review

That would be great.

I do get an initialization error related to Bluetooth, but then the endpoints show up, so I suspect they might work. I can give that a try

It is not clear to me that Comfast actually intended bluetooth support. For now, ignore bluetooth and report on the wifi.

That is good info to know and would be good info for a review.

Let me know if you need any help setting up OpenWRT, Recommend you set up WiFi 6 (AX) and test it first. WiFi 6e (6 GHz) is a different subject. Luci works well with WiFi 6 but not 6e yet so it has to be setup by editing files.

Nick

[codebling]

Will you be using OpenWRT 22.03.x or a current snapshot?

Whatever works. I did a quick search for the driver but didn't see it. It's great if they've already backported. I've built OpenWRT myself once and it made me very sad.

I'd eventually like to test performance between two 6ghz devices, since I live in an area with relatively congested wifi. I suppose I don't need a router for that, would give me an excuse to test out AP mode

[morrownr]

Tell me what hardware you will install OpenWRT on.

[codebling]

Tell me what hardware you will install OpenWRT on.

I'll likely wait until Raspberry Pi become more available late January and install on that. I also have an old Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H that I could install on or a Tenda RX9/TX9/AX12/AX3000, but the latter neither has a USB port nor is directly supported by OpenWRT at this time (though the chipset likely is, its firmware seems to be based on OpenWRT but I haven't succeeded it getting it to accept any of my custom firmware yet)

[morrownr]

Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H

Does this Buffalo have a usb port?

[codebling]

It does!

[morrownr]

Does this Buffalo have a usb port?

It does!

Well, you could be in business if it is a Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H v1. Look at the bottom of the following list:

https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_fwdownload?dataflt%5B0%5D=supported+current+rel_%3D22.03.2&dataflt%5BBrand*%7E%5D=Buffalo

To me, it does not matter if it is a USB2 or USB3 port. It will allow you get the 953ax going.

I don't know your experience level with OpenWRT but do be careful and read the instructions because you can brick a router if not careful.

[codebling]

I am currently running OpenWrt 18.06.1 (kernel 4.9) on that router! I see that mt7921u driver and firmware are available on 22. Might try it, but probably not until I get some form of backup router

[morrownr]

but probably not until I get some form of backup router

Good idea. No backup could make for a bad day.

The files you need to install have changed between 22.03 and the next edition (Snapshot).

For 22.03.x:

kmod-mt7921u kmod-mt7921e (the firmware was put in this file for 22.03 for some reason but has been corrected in snapshot)

For Snapshot:

kmod-mt7921u kmod-mt7921-firmware

I see that the usb port is usb2 so there will be a limitation of speed but it is no big deal. You can still check out WiFi 6/6e and get used to things.

Good luck.

[codebling]

Thanks for all of the help and suggestions with OpenWRT! By the way, 22.03's source code does show a -firmware package, so maybe 22.03 and snapshot are now aligned? I can only say what I see in the source.

By the way, I've updated the iw output in initial description with the reg db correctly set. Here's the diff of the CF-953AX (left) with the CF-951AX (right):

I've been so bust on other things that I have not had to time get smart on some of the WiFi 6/6e stuff but will be taking a harder look at it after the first of the year. Keep me up on your progress.

Nick

[fhteagle]

Just a follow up after a bit more testing on x86_64 host, using arch linux under 6.1.1 kernel, hostapd 2.11-devel from github:

CF-953AX still crashes 100% of the time for me (entire kernel network stack frozen) if hostapd is told to put this adapter into an existing bridge. I do not see this crash if the adapter is not bridged. I do not see the same crash if bridging an m.2 MT7921K . I need to try bringing up the hostapd instance and moving it into the bridge afterwards, but I have limited opportunities to do testing these days.

[codebling]

@fhteagle interesting. Sounds like you should submit a bug to the kernel. Can you share the link here if you do? Out of curiosity, what do you see in the kernel log when that happens?

I do not regularly use hostapd and so still have not worked up the courage to test it out with this adapter, but I'll make a note to try putting it into a bridge if I do.

Hi @morrownr , just seeing this, not sure why I didn't get an email notification. But I'm going to have to pass on the review, it might be seen as bias :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:.
