Failed to set channel 12 & 13 on Raspberry Pi 3 #193

Last time when I was using Raspbian Jessie 4.9.35-v7+, the raspberry pi 3 able to perform channel hopping from channel 1 until channel 13. But when I use Raspbian Stretch 4.9.80-v7+ on the same raspberry pi 3, it cannot set the channel 12 & 13. The error display is "command failed: Invalid argument (-22)"

Probably because those channels are not available to you in your region. Google for wifi region on the Pi. And if you patched the firmware for 4.9.35-v7+, you need to re-apply the new patch (if any available) for the latest. You should never update your Wifi firmware if you wanna use these tools.
