[solved][BPI-R64] Mesh (802.11s) on internal WiFi card (MT7622AV)

Hi,

I’m trying to use Mesh (802.11s) on the internal WiFi Card (MT7622AV according to the openwrt wiki) between two BPI R64 -V1.1, but I didn’t get it to work.

It seems that the beacons aren’t sent at all, because I didn’t even see the network with a iw dev wlan0 scan on the same device.

My wireless config:

root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/config/wireless 

config wifi-device 'radio0'
	option type 'mac80211'
	option path 'platform/18000000.wmac'
	option channel '1'
	option band '2g'
	option htmode 'HT20'
	option country 'DE'
	option cell_density '2'
	option beacon_int '15'

config wifi-iface 'wifinet0'
	option device 'radio0'
	option mode 'mesh'
	option encryption 'none'
	option mesh_id 'Avarange-Mesh'
	option mesh_fwding '1'
	option mesh_rssi_threshold '0'
option network 'mesh_network1'

And my network config:

root@OpenWrt:~# cat /etc/config/network

config interface 'loopback'
	option device 'lo'
	option proto 'static'
	option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
	option netmask '255.0.0.0'

config globals 'globals'
	option ula_prefix 'fd1e:8d69:e16e::/48'

config device
	option name 'br-lan'
	option type 'bridge'
	list ports 'lan1'
	list ports 'lan2'
	list ports 'lan3'
	list ports 'lan4'

config interface 'lan'
	option device 'br-lan'
	option proto 'static'
	option ipaddr '192.168.1.1'
	option netmask '255.255.255.0'
	option ip6assign '60'

config interface 'wan'
	option device 'wan'
	option proto 'dhcp'

config interface 'wan6'
	option device 'wan'
	option proto 'dhcpv6'

config interface 'mesh_network1'
	option proto 'static'
	option ipaddr '10.44.0.3'
	option netmask '255.255.255.0'

I build the image by using the latest commit da5bb885e17cf77caea70adcf473f1fb95448553 of the openwrt git.

I also tried to enable all MT76x wireless firmware in the config.

What works:

• AP
• partly adhoc (I do see the network on the same device, but not from any other device)

Do you have any hint for me ? Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks!
