The beta-18 release on my web page has the fix and should work fine.

Probably soon I will promote the beta-18 to final release
status.  Any help in testing and verifying the beta works well
is welcome.

I will also do testing with that version.

For clarity can I refer you and your firmware releases in the bug report?

It is fine by me.  It is a one-line patch to fix the firmware...QCA
can ask me as well if they don't figure it out on their own.

Thanks,
Ben

         Hi Ben,

         Do you plan to release a candelatech firmware with this fix?

Looks to me like 10.4 defaults to the right value, but possibly there
are other issues with it.  I tested my CT 10.4 and it worked OK with
vlans for me.

Thanks,
Ben

would be good if qca can fix this bug finally in all available

The bug appears that vlan-tx-stripping is unconditionally enabled in
at least my firmware.  I have re-compiled w/out that flag set, and

it

appears to work for me.

Please download this firmware, rename it firmware-2.bin, make sure
you remove/rename any firmware-5.bin (etc) so mine will load, and

see if that fixes your problem.


Please note that it is very likely you will have to use same MAC
address for the VLAN devices that the underlying station uses in

order for this to work.

I can reproduce this in my CT firmware. I'll see if I can fix it,
but for stock firmware, it might be that changing the driver to use
Ethernet packet type of native-wifi would make .1q vlans work.

I met the same problem before,
if i modify the 1q header to other value (0xaa00) before go into

firmware.

I can capture the packet in the air I think the vlan packet is
dropped in firmware.

Since the capability is implemented in software you might be
testing the limit of your router's CPU i/o speed.


By loading the module in rawmode?

The AP is an APU and Sta is an APU2.

Hi all,

Old thread but I think the issue is still present.

I'm running a setup with VLANs with WDS and ath10k cards.

To make it work both cards must be loaded in rawmode, AP and
Sta, and with no security.

I'm using a OpenWrt trunk r49941 and the most recent firmware,
10.2.4.70.58, from Kalle ath10k firmware tree.

Although it works the throughput is very bad.
Are there any alternatives to improve the throughput.

Best Regards,
Bruno

VLAN firmware issue

This only happens when you use STA  + WDS, or is .1q broken
for you in other cases as well?


No, this issue occurs in all modes (STA, STA + WDS, AP).

Thanks

Cedric.

       I'm testing to transmit frame with 802.1q tag (VLAN).

       My client is set in STA + WDS and the netdev is bridged

with eth0.

       I have a computer with vlan configuration set connected
to the STA eth0.

       If I try to transmit frames with 802.1q tag, the frames
are not


sent.


       I checked with wireless sniffer, and I don't see the
frame with VLAN tag (the frames without VLAN tag are sent).

       I tested with firmware 10.2.4.70.14-2 from kale github,
10.1.467-ct-com-full-015 from candelatech and 10.2.4.70-2
from openwrt, and in all cases I have the same issue.

       Thanks for your help.
