I'm on trunk with Archer C7 and I have both radios working. Maybe you're missing the ath10k/firmware packages?

Hi Sport,

I had this problem too. If you just want a quick patch to it, install the following:

Opkg install kmod-ath10k ath10k-firmware-qca988x

That should do it. Let me know if it works out for you.

Thanks,
Zach Sherin
