Seems nothing happened since this regression was reported more that a week ago. From a quick search on lore it seems Felix is not around currently; thus bringing the other mt76 maintainers in, maybe they can help out here to get this fixed rather sooner than later, as the culprit unfortunately made it to various stable trees. Ciao, Thorsten.

The IEEE80211_VHT_CAP_EXT_NSS_BW value already indicates support for half-NSS 160 MHz support, so it is wrong to also advertise full 160 MHz support.

However, if I remove `[VT160]` capability from the hostapd config, things go back to normal. It does seem that 160 MHz still works even.
Is this expected?
Is your device also broken in 6.6-rc2?
Yes, the same behaviour is observed with v6.6-rc2:
hostapd[1316]: Configured VHT capability [VHT_CAP_SUPP_CHAN_WIDTH_MASK] exceeds max value supported by the driver (1 > 0)while having `[VT160]` in `vht_capab=`.
