Ok. I found it... Don't use this brcm_unlock "feature" because it doesn't help on this unit...

with brcm_unlock=1 you will get only auto channels... so, you must unset this variable to fix it.. like this:

Code:
nvram unset brcm_unlock
nvram commit
reboot

...

Correct. Does not apply to BCM43602 chipsets or "all" Broadcom Northstar devices.

this directive shows if this option is used... when it is used it returns value 1, when it is disabled it returns 0... when doesn't show any value it means that variable doesn't exist which is original ddwrt design... so you can just restore factory defaults and try again... or you can use unset option... it is up to you...


After the factory reset. the problem was resolved. Thank you for your help.
