I’ve installed wavemon and have it running. What should I be looking for?
Here’s the output from wavemon.

No I cannot see any 2.4 ghz networks after the changes and reboot.
Thats not too bad and should give you more than 8Mbps especially as you have bitrate: 135 Mbit/s and no retries.
Really really strange., any thing in dmesg that could give an idea? You can post it with dmesg | paste-log
In terms of not seeing the other networks that is also a mystery. So in wavemon clicking F3 they are also not shown?
Nothing I can spot but maybe @sam_nazarko sees something.
While this is not an explanation as you get good results from the PC you might want to change the router to Channel 42 as that allows 80Mhz bandwidth.
Alternatively you might want to try with an empty mt7610 file and set country via CRDA
mv /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat.backup
Thanks for looking into this matter for me. I’ll follow-up with Sam tomorrow and see if he has any other ideas. Greatly appreciated.
Can you show me the output of /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat
Cheers
Sam
Easiest way to do that is cat /lib/firmware/mt7610u_sta.dat | paste-log and share the URL
Sam I believe I posted this information further up in the thread.
Let’s wait for @sam_nazarko to review (can be a few days).
I still would suggest to remove the file (with the mv command I gave, reboot and then set counrty via crda) but lets see what Sam says.
CountryRegion=31
CountryRegionABand=7
CountryCode=
ChannelGeography=1
SSID=11n-AP
NetworkType=Infra
WirelessMode=8
These are the only values you should need to change.
Let’s focus on getting good performance with 5Ghz first.
Sam are you saying I should ‘#’ out the other settings in the file? The example you have above are currently what I have in my file, but other settings are enabled.
No — I meant that these settings are the only ones you should ever need to change
