As always, the Quantenna chip has its own quirks. This is a closed source chipset
There is no way to install a channel.
But you can disable 5.0 GHz. @mpgalaxy hack "If you set the radio mode to station bridge and disable the network mode, the 5GHz device will turn off completely even after reboot."

If your router's light turns red, don't worry. Internet connection is ok.

Thank you BS and gurus!

Router: Linksys EA6400
Kernel: Linux 4.4.302-rt232-st63 #13899 SMP Sun Jun 8 06:26:48 +07 2025 armv7l
Reset: No
Mode: Internet gateway, WIFI 5GHz AP, smartdns with DoH, iptables firewall, sshd, mstpd (tests)
Status: Working
Issues: Difficult to start ctf module correctly. I'must make hard reboot several times and ctf work now
Uptime: 18 mins currently. Earlier ~4 days on the same build, but was unexpected reboot

I'm attach logs, dmesg for fix possible problems. I have CTF issue and saw mstpd can't find interfaces, smartdns cant load certificates file. That's rather old problems, but still exist.
