WiFi 6E (802.11ax) clients cannot discover 6GHz APs operating at 320MHz because the HE Operation element contains uninitialized center frequency values. For EHT320 mode, the code sets eht_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx but not the corresponding HE values. Later, the HE values are copied from VHT values, but VHT is not used on 6GHz, leaving he_oper_chwidth and he_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx at 0. This causes WiFi 6E clients to see incorrect channel width information, making the AP invisible to them during scanning. Fix this by: 1. Setting he_oper_chwidth to 3 (160MHz) for EHT320 mode 2. Computing he_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx based on the 160MHz segment that contains the primary channel 3. Preserving these pre-set values instead of overwriting them with uninitialized VHT values WiFi 7 clients continue to see 320MHz operation via the EHT Operation element, while WiFi 6E clients can now discover and connect at 160MHz.

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.

Download
Built firmware images are available for many architectures and come with a package selection to be used as WiFi home router. To quickly find a factory image usable to migrate from a vendor stock firmware to OpenWrt, try the Firmware Selector.
If your device is supported, please follow the Info link to see install instructions or consult the support resources listed below.
An advanced user may require additional or specific package. (Toolchain, SDK, ...) For everything else than simple firmware download, try the wiki download page:
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or macOS system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.7+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -ato obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -ato install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfigto select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
maketo build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.
