using 2.4 vs 5 Ghz..
Hello,
I have a few devices which operate only on the 2.4 Gz band...how do I ensure that these devices will only connect via 2.4 and not try to
connect via 5 ? None of them are showing up as conn...
If the devices only support 2.4Ghz and don't have any 5Ghz hardware support, then they will only see the 2.4Ghz radio.
Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz.
Try setting WPA and TPIK first then try WPA2 and AES only. You can disable WPA temporarily to see if your devices will connect here.
You can try setting the power for the 5Ghz radio from 100% to say 25% temporarily if you think this might help.
