I have my AX86U set manually to channel 108/80MHz, but stock firmware (latest version) does not seem to respect this. After few minutes the router migrates 5GHz band to channel 40 or so. How can I prevent this? It will be probably some UI setting, but not sure which one :) 160MHz is off, AX is on.

2.4GHz band seems to stay on selected channel (13 for me being the best).
 
That's because 108 is a DFS channel. Probably your router detects a radar and switches to a non-DFS channel (as required by regulations). There is nothing you can do about it.
