WAX202 5GHZ only mode takes 10+ mins until it works.
Hi folks!
I use a WAX202 in AP mode for my wireless PCVR setup. For this I only use the 5 GHz mode. Since I only need the WiFi when I'm playing with the VR glasses, I otherwise turn it off.
It worked well at the beginning, but now I have the problem that when I activate it via the web interface it takes about 10-12 minutes (just checked with the Wifianalyzer) until the Wifi is visible and usable.
What could be the reason?
Clearly caused by the regulatory requirements for DFS on 5 GHz Not much you can do against,except of reconfigure that AP to a channel-set nor requiring DFS in your regulatory area.

Firmware changes?
tough to know.
Did you try rebooting it?
You really don't need to turn the wifi on/off.
