### FEAT-14 — Second T3U to replace onboard wlan0 (dual AC radios)
|
||||||
|
- **Status**: `IDEA`
|
||||||
|
- **Area**: hardware + `deploy/yaris_uplink.py`, `deploy/install_netwatch.sh`, `modules/app_network.py`
|
||||||
|
- **Phase**: unassigned
|
||||||
|
- **What**: Owner bought a second TP-Link Archer T3U (RTL8812BU) to replace the onboard
|
||||||
|
BCM43438 currently serving as the internet uplink (wlan0). Both radios would then be fast
|
||||||
|
AC1300 T3U dongles — one AP (wlan1, 5GHz) and one uplink (wlan0) — removing the current
|
||||||
|
tradeoff where away-from-home uploads run over the weak onboard radio.
|
||||||
|
- **Considerations**:
|
||||||
|
- Both dongles share the Pi 3's USB 2.0 bus (~480 Mbps total), so two AC dongles can't both
|
||||||
|
run at full speed simultaneously — but each still far exceeds the onboard radio.
|
||||||
|
- Power: two AC dongles draw more than onboard + one; verify the 5V GPIO feed holds
|
||||||
|
(`vcgencmd get_throttled` should stay `0x0` for no undervoltage).
|
||||||
|
- Interface naming: both radios are USB now, so `wlan0`/`wlan1` may not map predictably —
|
||||||
|
pin `connection.interface-name` and/or add MAC-based udev rules so AP vs uplink never swap.
|
||||||
|
- The rtl88x2bu driver is already built; a second identical dongle should be plug-and-play.
