Hello,
We've found that our devices can't seem to operate on certain
frequencies (e.g. 5660MHz) being used by access points like the Apple
Airport Extreme and Asus RT-AC68U. I did a git bisect and found that
31dc1c5eca29d039ac8f26340defe44bd7e497c1 removed that band amongst
others. A more recent [1] FCC source implies that these frequencies
should be usable with DFS.
Does anyone know the source for the commit that removed these frequencies from?
Below is a patch that adds back these frequencies:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
wireless-regdb: Add back regulatory rules for US
The FCC approved UNII devices operating in the
5470 - 5725MHz range with radar detection and DFS
capabilities. See the [1] source for details.

The patch came from QCA. I'm adding Jouni to the Cc. Jouni, any
comments?

This looks reasonable based on the documentation you linked to. I'm not
certain about the EIRP values, but that's at least consistent with what
was there before (i.e. they match the EIRP for the first DFS frequency
range).
I'm going to wait a bit to see if anyone has any comments about the
patch, and if no one objects I'll apply it.
Thanks,
Seth

Hi Seth,
Thanks for the prompt reply!

Indeed, I didn't know the EIRP values so I put them back to what they
were set to by QCA. Jouni,
I hope you can shed some light on where these values come from.
Thanks,
Daiwei

I'm not sure what the exact rationale for that part of the commit was.

AUTO-BW does not seem to make much sense here since neither new range
has immediately neighboring ranges with different flags.

Good point. Daiwei, care to send an updated patch?

Sure. Updated patch below:

The whitespace in the patch was mangled. I went ahead and fixed it, but
please try to watch out for that in the future.
This is applied now; thanks for the patch.
