Hello all, I sure could use a bit of help here. I recently purchased dd-wrt x86 professional specifically for the wifi capabilities. Considering the card works fine on Kali Linux, ubuntu, ect. I figured I wouldnt have a problem at all..Boy was i wrong. Basically the card (AR5B125/AR9485 chipset)seems to be recognized just fine but Im getting absolutely nothing out of it in client or AP mode. Heres some output that may be of use helping narrow down this problem.
Thanks very much in advance!

Ive been looking at the output of the commands above in other distros in hopes of narrowing down the problem. The ath10k_pci & ath10k_core is what stands out but despite my endless googling on how to disable or black list them Ive come up with nothing. It seems that modprobe.d is missing from dd-wrt x86 and thats what most, if not all, support points to. Help me out here guys.. Im doing my best to figure this out myself to no avail. Help me out?

The solution was simple.. Switch to pfSense. Thanks for all the 'support'.
