Supply the following if possible:

All releases (trunk, stable)

As @yuhhaurlin described mwlwifi takes care of everything of this router, but the defaults for the configs includes the:
-
kmod-mwifiex-sdio
-
mwifiex-sdio-firmware
-
radio2 and default_radio2 in /etc/config/wireless - which is the radar for Linksys WRT 3200ACM
But it just giving problems and to make to work you need to exclude these.
My request is to remove it in the .config defaults and the image-builder as well so the router is working (will) perfectly with 160Mhz, DTS, DFS radar and MU-MIMO.
They could be installed as a module, but as @yuhhaurlin in GitHub describes mwlwifi is not required totally.
Besides kmod-mwifiex-sdio and mwifiex-sdio-firmware might only work with US, but then again mwlwifi takes care everything.
