Yet another " Your adapter can not transmit to channel xxx, frequency band 5G" #428

Open gitxmax opened 4 years ago

gitxmax commented 4 years ago

Going nuts here, spent the whole day trying to resolve the issue.. Arch Linux "5.5.5-arch1-1"

The main problem is my wifi card switches to "phy#0 (self-managed)", which is "country 00: DFS- UNSET" with all 5ghz channels disabled, as soon as I launch create_ap

Tried: Create Ap config file set to US (tried leaving blank = aswell" Crda is set to US "modprobe -r iwlwifi && modprobe iwlwifi lar_disable=1" "echo options iwlwifi lar_disable=1 >> /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf" and all the other wireless db hacks out there

After every reboot, I get:

iw phy0 reg get global country US: DFS-FCC (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 30), (N/A) (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (N/A), AUTO-BW (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS, AUTO-BW (5490 - 5730 @ 160), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS (5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (N/A) (57240 - 71000 @ 2160), (N/A, 40), (N/A)

And as I already said, as soon as the create_Ap is launched it switches to:

`iw phy0 reg get global country US: DFS-FCC (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 30), (N/A) (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (N/A), AUTO-BW (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS, AUTO-BW (5490 - 5730 @ 160), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS (5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 30), (N/A) (57240 - 71000 @ 2160), (N/A, 40), (N/A)

My wifi card is AX200 iw phy, after reboot:

My wifi card is AX200

I think consumer grade Intel wireless cards does not support AP on 5G band: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi

it did on windows10pro

You mean on Windows 5G works? Well, Intel can decide not to support 5G on Linux. This is set in the firmware.

gitxmax commented 4 years ago

right, tested the card on my windows 10 laptop before, 5ghz hotspot runs well

i tired it on manjaro KDE and it works changed the distro everything fails

igorpecovnik commented 4 years ago

and it works

AP mode at 5Ghz? Which kernel and firmware version?

i used pamac to build the tool then restarted the PC wrote the command in terminal but i specified the channel to 149 and it created an interface used for months changed the desktop environment to xfce also worked now i am using dwm and i can't figure out how to make work again.
