Hi Ben,
Forgot to mention. Our hardware is not supported by OpenWRT, so going to LEDE at this point may be too tough. I'm an RF guy, so this is a steep hill.

This is Toradex's standard build for their Apalis iMX6 on a Ixora carrier. I think they are due for a new major release very soon. I can check if you think it's worth it.
The current firmware is yours (firmware-2-ct-full-community.bin), fresh off your site today. I downloaded board.bin today too.

Please let us know 'lspci' or equiv, exactly what firmware you are loading,
kernel driver version, etc.
Maybe try LEDE if you can, it's likely more up to date.
Thanks,
Ben
