But if it's normal the minimum value send back from driver must be 60s ? I still not find where this data is get from to write to the file /net/wireless/regdb.c

>> My iw dev show : channel 52 (5260 MHz), width: 20 MHz, center1: 5260 MHz  but I can not connect my station to the access point (seems it does not work yet cause the file "dfs_stats" still show "DFS not enabled" . I had a debug msg with debug mask = 0x432 for ath10k in the attached file if someone are interested in.

My Station can see the network but it is not stable (some time it appear in the scan result, then I refresh it gets lost and appears later if I re-scan). And I cannot connect to it.

This msg may be interested with you? :D. It shows that my DFS master region is ETSI

And you can say anything from this? :
