Description

I collected the firmware from master, installed it on my router zbt-wg108
The 2.4 ghz signal is very bad

  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

No source file or test is identified. Start with the reported iw phy output, the mt76 rate_txpower debug path, and the attached EEPROM data; compare these with the MT7603E firmware collected from master. Done means identifying a reproducible driver or firmware cause for the weak 2.4 GHz signal and documenting the required change or missing evidence.
