I am supporting a client using a 4-port FW box with a builtin Liteon wifi module.  I upgraded their appliance today from 24.1.10 to 24.7.2.  About 30 minutes later, I start getting complaints that the wifi is not working.  Even though everything seemed to be working (I even still had dhcp leases for the wifi interface), when I attempted to join something to the wifi, the SSID is not being broadcast.  The GUI and the CLI show the interface up, but it is not working.  I tried the kern.smb.disabled==1 setting and a reboot, but still the wifi is not working.  I also get many "WPA rekeying GTK" messages in the wireless log.

Are there any other options to try?  Is there a process to downgrade to 24.1.0 or do I need to rebuild and restore the configuration?

Unfortunately, neither of the settings mentioned seem to have no bearing on my situation.  Just upgraded from 24.1.10 to 24.7.2 (two upgrades), and now our WIFI is not working.  The channels was already set to auto.  After adding the kern.smb.disabled==1 setting, I am still only getting frequent "hostapd 51964 - [meta sequenceId="1"] ath0_wlan1: WPA rekeying GTK" posted to the wireless_20240823.log.  I am likely going to need to downgrade back to 24.1.10 to get our WIFI back up as people need it.
