TOS6: SDIO Wi-Fi does not work in AP mode

Software SW bugs discussion

On Turris MOX in current branch hbl (TOS6), I cannot get SDIO Wi-Fi working in AP mode. When trying to configure an AP everything seems to be working except that there is NO-CARRIER on wlan1 and in the system log, these errors keep reappearing:

When configured in client (sta) mode, it works without any issues.

My turris mox version 5.3.5 HBS, kernel 4.14.264, similar output. WiFi in AP mode.

Yes, no problems so far.

I have had a problem connecting an Android device for some time. I’ll check to see if it’s related.
