Hi!

 The device identifier changes between ar71xx and ath79 platform. You shall regenerate your wifi config to get the new ID.

So backup your /etc/config/wireless config file and run following command:
wifi config

In the new /etc/config/wireless file, check how the following line has changed:
option path 'platform/ahb/180c0000.wmac'

Now, all you need to do is to change back the old config and edit the line for "option path". Copy over the new path from the freshly generated config.
Once it is done, restart wifi with command:
wifi

I had to do the same when I upgraded. Hope this helps.
