Very unstable WiFi

His card also use ath10k and even it is same chipset for 5 GHz. So it’s not much different.

I will test it, but don’t understand, why it is set to 19 out of the box.
Is there a way to restart all/selected wireless interfaces via SSH?

“wifi up” should do it for all interfaces and for one interface: “wifi up wlan1”.

I have a same problem, but it’s device specific. This bug has impact to only one if my 2,4GHz device (Prestigo Multipad). It’s normally connect and after few seconds i can not open any site on internet. But strange thing is, the multipad still shown as connected in statusbar or WiFi settings. Others 2,4GHz’s devices was working fine. But this one is essential for me, because it is used by my girlfriend.

@Big_boss
After three days of testing wlan1, I can see no change :frowning: Still reconnecting every 5-30 minutes and very high pings.

I want to try some other things first, before giving up and branding it a “driver-bug-issue”.

Could you try setting it on channel 1 and also test if things still are not changing?

Also not to forget, could you please do

iw reg set CZ

As well changing this in the /etc/config/wireless (country code to CZ)

How does your wireless surroundings look like?

Other networks around yours?
Physical location of the TO?
Is it close to any metal object?

Other networks around yours?

See a few comments above, he has almost no neighbors

Have you tried to set disassoc_low_ack to off (https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/wireless) if it helps?

Hello, I’d also like to add something. Because of legacy devices in my network I can’t use AC and 5GHz, similarly to others above. But I actually bought 9db antennae to absolutely no avail. Now despite of having superb signal all over my appartment wifi performance is still horrible. Ping’s to router itself range between 1ms (~5%) and 1300ms(~50%) with occasional timeout (~15%). Similarly to previous posters, my former router didn’t have problem in my environment.

I am not sure if you have read other topics about the matter of coverage, if not please do read this topic.

About your other router not having the problem, it could be that your other router had “auto-channel”, which is nothing more then it automatically hoping to a less crowded channel. Besides that, that was in the past and COULD be that less routers were interferring the signal.

I am not saying it is all because of that, drivers/firmware could also be the issue. However, i would advice you to educate your self on WiFi matter to know where to tweak or change it. More dBi will only cause MORE trouble for yourself AND for your own neighbors, more is not better, especially in a apartment building :slight_smile:

As I wrote to CZ section, this device don’t have these lines in syslog. Other 2,4GHz Android device was working fine and have these lines on syslog

Sorry for my absence. I did not try it (do not know the exact command to type). In the meantime, I’ve recovered all from the scratch (latest medkit). Still messing with very high ping times with android phones on my Omnia’s radio1 (2,4). This can be the driver’s fault.

I am not sure if it related, but 2 out of 4 devices I have in wlan1 (2.4) have problems.
They lose connections constantly.
My logs are full of deauth requests.

Can it be changed?

Do your devices that have problems, are android based?

One of them is a Kindle Fire Tablet, Android based.
The other one is a Ecobee3 smart meter, this is the one with more disconnects.

I have other Android devices using the 5Ghz WiFi without issues.

See if “iwconfig wlan0 power off” helps. More on that in Turris (1) WiFi problems after upgrade to 3.3 - #37 by fanoush - SW bugs discussion - Turris forum

These should do it:

uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[0].disassoc_low_ack=0
uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[1].disassoc_low_ack=0
uci commit
wifi

See file /etc/config/wireless

I think that is for Turris 1.0, and power management is already off.
Maybe the client has power management on.

root@turris:/# iwconfig wlan1 power off
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
 SET failed on device wlan1 ; Invalid argument.
root@turris:/# iwconfig wlan1
wlan1     IEEE 802.11  Mode:Master  Tx-Power=16 dBm
          RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:off

I tried:

disassoc_low_ack=0

It doesn’t seem to improve, but I will wait a little bit longer and report.

For me 5GHz wifi is also broken.

It just stops working as in: the client associates but does not receive an IP address. The client then drops the connection and uses the far away accesspoint in my office, which sits in the same VLAN with the same SSID and password (but on different channel). Then everything is fine. But the room the Turris is supposed to cover is in fact without usable 5GHz wireless.

The device can be seen with lspci, nothing unusual in the GUIs. All working via the other accesspoint let’s me think that dnsmasq is also not the problem.

It’s the same with my Samsung Galaxy S7 and my mid 2014 MacBook Pro.

I’m indeed quite disappointed.

EDIT: wtf, it’s working again and I haven’t done anything but entering diagnostic commands. Can it be load related? Like, when the PS4 is fetching updates it fails to correctly handle concurrent clients?

EDIT2: it went away shortly after. 5GHz WLAN is just broken somehow on stable, in weird ways.
