Would be possible to compile 5Ghz drivers with Client mode and WDS enabled?

Of course, in menuconfig mediatek > drivers > mt7610e and set what you need.
Later you have to configure via console because for now it's not possible through LuCi

Thanks a lot! But right now I don't have a machine setup in a way that I could compile the project. Would you be so kinda as to provide compiled binaries with those options enabled?

@zaccareal after finally setting up a build env, I could follow your instructions. But after flashing the resulting image I can't connect to any 5Ghz network using the modem.

Did you ever test the 5Ghz network on client mode?

Me too I struggled with client mode but finally i got it works.
After apclii0 interface configuration remember to set rai0/(apclii0) Channel according to your 5ghz network.
iwconfig apclii0 command and System log/dmesg show connection status/info

@zaccareal could you share how did you manage to configure apclii0? I didn't even know I had to edit and create that interface.

To configure STA mode follow these steps: https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=358223#p358223 (you don't need to load driver)
Remember to set appropriate Channel with iwpriv rai0 set Channel=36

Here you can find detailed information about configuration:

Thanks I lot! I followed your steps and I did manage to connect as a Client! Thanks a lot for the help.
Do you think in the future it would be possible to do this configuration by setting the interface to 'sta' mode in /etc/config/wireless?

Also, have you ever tried to make a relayd bridge? If you did, would you be so kind to share your configuration?

Soon i'll add STA mode LuCi support, the code is ready, now i have not access to the router to test it
I never tested relayd bridge
