Why do you have the same MAC for wlan0 and wlan0.sta1? What are those interfaces exactly? It is normal for the bridge to have same MAC as one of the interfaces it contains. > I can use it for my STA in promiscuous mode and connect to my AP on channels DFS, > Sometimes I get this message "wlan0: received packet with own address as source address". > I'm not sure that it is your firmware issue or because of my network configuration. > I'll try to figure it out and report to you if it relates to your firmware. I doubt my firmware has any impact on this particular problem.
