Thanks for the response, unfortunately this is the result of defining
the center frequency:
root at voyage1:/opt/ca_node/etc# iw wlan0 set freq 5745 80 5775
command failed: Device or resource busy (-16)
Also, using wpa_supplicant does not work using the following config:
root at voyage1:/opt/ca_node/etc# cat wpa_supplicant-mesh.conf
ap_scan=2
ctrl_interface=/run/wpa_supplicant
update_config=1
device_type=0-00000000-0
network={
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
priority=1
ssid="ibss"
mode=1
frequency=5180
}
running as:
wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c ./wpa_supplicant-mesh.conf -dd -D nl80211,wext
root at voyage1:/opt/ca_node/etc# iw dev wlan0 info
Interface wlan0
ifindex 5
wdev 0x100000001
addr 04:f0:21:1b:5f:3d
ssid ibss-rsn
type IBSS
wiphy 1
channel 36 (5180 MHz), width: 20 MHz, center1: 5180 MHz
root at voyage1:/opt/ca_node/etc# iw phy phy1 info
Wiphy phy1
DFS state: usable (for 46424 sec)
DFS CAC time: 60000 ms
* 5280 MHz [56] (23.0 dBm) (no IR, radar detection)
DFS state: usable (for 46424 sec)
DFS CAC time: 60000 ms
* 5300 MHz [60] (23.0 dBm) (no IR, radar detection)
DFS state: usable (for 46424 sec)
DFS CAC time: 60000 ms
* 5320 MHz [64] (23.0 dBm) (no IR, radar detection)
DFS state: usable (for 46424 sec)
Its fallbacking to 20MHz channels, which is even less than 40MHz
channels set manually by iw
How recent wpa_supplicat shall I try? I believe this it quite recent:
root at voyage1:/opt/ca_node/etc# wpa_supplicant -v
wpa_supplicant v2.3

Re. the regulatory settings:
root at voyage1:/opt/ca_node/etc# iw reg get

(5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 17), (N/A)
(5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 23), (0 ms), DFS

(57240 - 63720 @ 2160), (N/A, 40), (N/A)
Any other thoughts?
