Hi kvalo,
The QCN9074 module with the ath11k driver currently only supports 128 clients. It should actually be able to support 512, shouldn't it? If so, is there a firmware restriction because of this, etc?
Best regards
Alexander Wilhelm

For that you need to change the FW mode to 0 as I think it currently
defaults to 2 to save on memory.

Thanks, it worked. I am able to use up to 512 clients.

IIRC increasing station limit means that we have to reduce memory usage
somewhere else and we don't have a good dynamic way to change those
values in ath11k right now. Hopefully someone else answers who knows
this better.
