5G band cannot work. about linux-ath HOT 3 OPEN

Can you see any 5GHz AP's when you scan (iw dev wlan0 scan)?
Are you sure your AP is configured for 5GHz?

@erstrom Thank you for your reply, Mr. Erstorm.

I also cannot see any 5GHz APs when I using the "iw dev wlan0 scan" command...

In fact, I'm not sure if my AP is configured for 5GHz...

I can make sure that 5GHz is configured in the driver's mac.c. My antenna is able to receive 2.4GHz and 5GHz as well. Only one thing that I cannot make sure is the firmware.

I used the firmware from kvalo's GitHub of ath10k and my vendor provided. Both of them only can see the 2.4GHz...My vendor told me, the firmware they gave me is already enabled the 5GHz. So they think the problem comes from my driver. But I don't think so.

Here are my firmware, board.bin and firmware-sdio-5.bin link...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ufgzlylep7t4nwn/firmware-sdio-5.bin?dl=0

The firmware-sdio-5.bin is generated by qwlan30.bin and otp30.bin. The qwlan30.bin and otp30.bin are also provided by my vendor. Is there any possibility to use my binary files for checking if 5GHz is enabled? Many thanks.

Hi everyone,
I captured iw list result, could you please check these items whether it corrected or not. Many thanks...
