Hi all,

I can confirm the symptoms of the disapearing AP functionality after a couple of hours as you've discribed on my router as well.

Hardware: TP-Link TL-WR1043N/ND v3
Lede version: r580
wireless config: ap mode (details given under [1])

Symptoms: after a couple of hours proper AP functionality, the ssid of the same router disapears, new clients are not able to connect to this AP

Troubleshooting:

  * issuing the command wifi does not bring back the AP

  * creating am monitor device with iw phy phy0 add interface mon0 type monitor leads to the error output: command failed: Too many open files in system (-23), after increasing the max_files by issuing echo 32768 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max the monitor device creation with iw works, but after bringing up mon0 by ifconfig mon0 up the mon0 inferface does not show any increase in packet count (it stays at 0) nor any output via tcpdump -nei mon0

  * output of dmesg shows some potential problem user.notice : Command failed: Not found, but I have not yet investigated if a wifi config is triggering this, maybe someone sees an issue under [1]


  * a second wifi router on the same channel with an monitor interface does not receive any beacons from the TPLink 1043

educated guess:

  * beacons seem to get stuck after some hours in AP mode and are not been sent out anymore

workaround:

  * hard reboot

[1] cat /etc/config/wireless
