Good day to all. Here comes the long-awaited BE14 board, it started up and works on the latest snapshot, but it is not clear how to configure WiFi 6 now - it is always in the disable state. Here on the forum there are only scraps of various information, but there are no step-by-step instructions on how to make the module work with openwrt. Thanks in advance!
Can you post a screenshot of the wireless config in Luci? Or your configuration?
I installed one of the latest snapshots one or two weeks ago and it just worked out of the box.
Did you setup your wifi SSIDs already or did you try to use the default configuration? The issue with the default configuration for the 6Ghz Radio is, that it doesn’t set a password. And it seems that passwords are mandatory for that connection type, so it doesn’t bring up the SSID/AP.
Hmm, I have a day off today, and I’ll check tomorrow. But it seems to me that there is no encryption in the config.

Did it work when you set the password?
I change settings to another and it works! Now you need 10 Gigabit to test the speeds

The speeds are very pleasing, but I can’t understand one thing: why doesn’t the phone find an access point with the name Openwrt_60
Is your phone really 6g capable? And does it support eht320? Maybe you try lower option here
