R8000 Scan of channels not working

[Vinit Kudva]

Router: Netgear R8000

FW: freshtomato-R8000-ARM-2020.5-AIO-64K

‌

Issue: When trying to tweak the wireless configuration, I tried completing a scan on all channels. I tried on 5G and 2.4G. In both cases, the button starts updating with the number of ssid found and the dropdown becomes wider. But on clicking the dropdown, no details are shown. The scan button for all wireless networks then stops working until you refresh the page.

Yup! Thanks

GUI: basic-network.asp - repair scan button function and provide control channel at wireless survey

Note: use control channel and not the actual channel because we use the same function get_scan_results() for wireless survey AND scan button at basic-network.asp

Example: wireless 5G setup 36/80 (control channel / channel width) will/would result in actual channel 42 --> Channel 42 is "not valid" or select-able for basic wireless for example;

tested with R7000, E4200v1 and WRT54GL, working correct!
