Hi, I've been busy for few days, I can work on that now. If I understood, you said that it is not possible to initiate AP mode in 5GHz. I was able to run an AP in 5GHz in A wifi mode, so it is possible on 5GHz. I may have misunderstood and it is not possible in AC mode. If so, do anyone know a wifi dongle which can work as an AP in AC (on a Raspberry if it matters).
