WAC 510 Wave 2 settings?
Hi all.
Just a question about the WAC510 because I'm a bit confused.
It is stated that the product supports AC Wave2.
When setting up the box and going through the gui there are a lot of settings regarding Wireless, 5Ghz,
but none of them hint or display anyting about the wave 2 capabilities.
Highest bandwidth possible is 80Mhz, but in my book wave 2 should support up to 160Mhz.
Maybe I'm lost in the standards!!?
Thanks for any input.

- schumakuGuru - Experienced UserJust as not every 802.11ac Wave 1 device does not have 4x4 and supporting link rates of 1734 Mb/s there are many different variants of Wave 2 devices, eg. adding MU-MIMO 2x2:2 for example on the WAC505/510, or the lower 5 GHz radio on the WAC540 (the upper 5 GHz is a 4x4).
Always consult the data sheet for details.
