Is there any way to add the relevant channels / the relevant regulatory domain. or, anyone familiar with a build the include those?
Update:
I've tried to downgrade to:
DD-WRT v3.0-r43324 (06/02/20)
But, same results, Although it's available with the stock firmware, there are no low channels for 5GHz

There is a experienced user on here with this device that never does any reset. They don't have problems. Occasionally an extra reboot might be a good idea. Reset if problems pop up

the bs builds run very well
there are just some bugs that need to be worked around
doing an nvram erase on a bs build is one of them
going to the kong build is just to recover the channels
once you are back on bs just do a gui or pin reset if need be
the channels are just a matter of the country settings. _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s

The GUI is crap when applying the regional settings... You have to follow the right order of operations:
1) Select your country first and YOU MUST HIT APPLY! The driver needs to reconfigure the country for the speific wifi chipset and then the router needs to get the updated channel list for your country.
2) Set the Channel Width and hit Save.
3A) Select the correct WiFi "carrier" channel and concurrently go to step 3B.
3B) Set the Extension Channel UU, LL, UL, or LU . (For BCM this is reverse polish notation) as outline in the general wifi settings wiki....
I don't change the country
I set the Channel Width and hit Save
I have no clue what WiFi "carrier" channel is
In my setup I have to pick an Extension Channel and hit Save
If you select 161 and click 'Save' at this point, does it show more channels? See here about comparing the nvram before and after...if you're still interesting in finding the culprit at least. _________________ #NAT/SFE/CTF: limited speed w/ DD#Repeater issues#DD-WRT info: FAQ, Builds, Types, Modes, Changes, Demo#
