Is it just me or are the SnapShot Builds on OpenWrt faulty.
Using their link - https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/?version=SNAPSHOT&target=mediatek%2Ffilogic&id=bananapi_bpi-r4
and downloading the SNAPSHOT (r27283-85f0128851) build to SDCard.
I can’t get any combination of enabling 2.4GHz and/or 5GHz Wifi working at all.
longterm 5.4 support ends in Dec 25 hopefully will be quicker their upgrade to 6.1 (not 5.10 nor 5.15 
)
I am using latest openwrt/main and

On your log, there is no traffic recorded. It cannot say the 6GHz band is working. If it is working, should expect some log like this:
so far just checked beacons contain EHT - stations will be next step

Could you share the image of the SD?
Thanks, all three APs work that way. Although, I can only join them so long as encryption is off…

Don’t know what happened, but now encryption works up to WPA3 after booting into a clean stock image.
Hi, which stock image have you used? I tried the SDK40 Version (BPI-R4-BE1350-WIFI_MP4_0 -SDK-20240620). Without authentication communication is running in 2.4, 5 and 6GHz. But as soon as I switch authentication on (like WPA2PSK, WPA3PSK etc…) connect cannot be established anymore. 
This is the same one I use. I can’t remember exactly what I did differently last time that helped, but it was in MKT->WiFi Configuration. Could have been simply pressing ‘Reload’ and ‘Disable/Enable’ after making changes. Current config is attached below. wireless.txt (12.8 KB)
you should create dedicated threads with the used image…thread is mixed up with general questions, bpi image, mainline openwrt and hard to follow.
On the last snapshot I have 6GHz wifi 6E on the ‘soc/11300000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/0000:01:00.0+1’ device. Its wierd for me, but it work. My config:

Thanks.
I tested and got only 36 Mbps iperf3 test.
I expected more speed. Something is wrong here because with HE160 I get more than 1.6 Gbps.
It may be a problem with the receiving device. I have a Samsung S24 Ultra. It has Wi-Fi 7 declared as a test one.
I am having speed issues on my Galaxy S24 Ultra too, using the latest image from Banana-PI in WiFi7, oddly enough this is the only device that has this issue, anything else connected to the Banana-PI works fine, including Laptops using BE200 WiFi NICs.
My Galaxy S24 Ultra works fine when I connect it to another (Qualcomm based) WiFi 7 access point, so I am fairly confident this is a bug in the firmware or MT7990 driver running on the Banana-Pi router.
In my case i can set wifi protection wpa2 aes with password and client don’t even ask to provide password, today got second module and antennas from sinovoip, one module not directly from sinovoip was doa… Bpi hang with green led and not boot, no serial console output.
Because of mixing different topics around the wifi module…please create dedicated threads
