Thread for configuration of mainline (snapshot) openwrt.
Possible working config:
what you mean mainline? 24 snapshot?
official openwrt master/snapshots
so it didnt help 
still only two radio for me
You used the testing firmware and the 233 patch?
See this for more
Looks like they updated it a few hours ago: https://git01.mediatek.com/plugins/gitiles/openwrt/feeds/mtk-openwrt-feeds/+/66d5f99c541dfcdca5466eea16163a749871c719

I am using latest openwrt/main and
- Add ath12k - WCN7850 - opensource driver/firmware support by januszdziedzic · Pull Request #15945 · openwrt/openwrt · GitHub (EHT mac80211.sh patches)
- [PATCH] wifi: mt76: mt7996: support mt7996 2+3+3 variant
- firmware 2-3-3
- due to old regulatory set JP for 320MHz

Which firmware do you use (my testing or from sdk)?
Any config changes (like adding 6g section in /etc/wireless) or is all autodetected?
Uhh! This commit is very interesting!
Thanks for pointing out! Seems they also added new firmware. Will do a testbuild with MTK repo as additional source tonight.
https://git01.mediatek.com/openwrt/feeds/mtk-openwrt-feeds - firmware get from here
Autodetection require changes in libucode and wifi-detect.uc - should be easy to add - so far didn’t focus on that. sdcard image starts with correct config
i test this image, change essid that any radio have specyfic, and i see only 2.4 and 5ghz also wird think, my phone show me logo wifi7 before connection, but after connect show me only wifi6
Hello BE14 nerds!
Did anyone already found that Mediatek readme and created a running testbuild based on their instructions? Sounds very promising: https://git01.mediatek.com/plugins/gitiles/openwrt/feeds/mtk-openwrt-feeds/+/d7d5c7502b6c24795309e259d44158e99feccb9a/autobuild/unified/Readme.md
EDITH: … maybe change their first git clone instruction to:
git clone --branch master https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt.git openwrt
EDITH2:
- first build without changes failed …
- looks like LuCi got patched out by mediatek | manually added as feed and still building …
EDITH3: Unexpected quick win! (updated existing build)
Just followed instructions, but modifed openwrt git-source as mentioned above. Added original openwrt feeds after first run, did make menuconfig and selected luci and some additianal packages. By now only WiFi 6 but no personal repo required anymore (good step forward).

No, I tried the instructions here instead (I also tried the 21.02 build but it wouldn’t compile properly) after changing the feeds configuration to github, but the resulting image did not boot properly from sd card (and corrupted my settings on nand):
… jepp, and also today within timeframe of my tests.
Any chance you could share your build somewhere? Compiling openwrt takes ages.
I can share, but it’s really a bad practice. Who knows what 3d parties might get into it. Time should not be a factor to properly build your own, safe, images.
Hello. Is this a clean firmware with working wifi for bpi-r4?
