I have TL-WA901nd-V3(setup as a repeater) and after I updated to r54095 or r54109, I see that it cannot connect to the wifi network I configured(Station mode). I also have virtual wlan interface in AP mode which appears to work correctly. I haven't tryed erasing the nvram while upgrading.

Maybe you have the same error that I noticed and posted earlier here https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1293442#1293442

Router/Version: TP-Link TL-WR841ND v10
File/Kernel: DD-WRT v3.0-r54095 std (11/22/23) / Linux 3.18.140-d6 #185219 Wed Nov 22 06:45:34 +06 2023 mips
Previous/Reset: r54079 / no reset
Mode/Status: WDS Station with network mode "N / G mixed" and channel width "Full (20 MHz)" | no connection to WDS AP after update
Issues/Errors: Because of no connection to WDS AP i found this in syslog on WDS Station => [wpa_supplicant] : Error on startup, returncode 255

Reverted to r54079 and checked how wpa_supplicant is running. Saved content of "/tmp/wlan0_wpa_supplicant.conf" and reupdated device to r54095. Compared configs and in new version was this additional line:

disable_he=1

Removed this line and tried to start wpa_supplicant. This time the service could be started and connect to WDS AP. For testing, i stopped the service again, readded the line and service won't start anymore. Without that line the service starts.

Maybe it has something to do with this changes: https://svn.dd-wrt.com/changeset/54095/src/router/services/networking/wifi/mac80211.c?old=54072&old_path=src%2Frouter%2Fservices%2Fnetworking%2Fwifi%2Fmac80211.c

Changing the network mode to "N Only - 2.4 GHz", so it contains no "mixed", has no effect. Same problematic config was generated.

The WDS AP which is also a TP-Link TL-WR841ND v10 seems to have no problems until now with DD-WRT v3.0-r54095 std (11/22/23)


Should be solved in next build:
