WAX214 missing 5GHz channels

Hello All,

 

I've just implemented WAX214 and notice that not all 5GHz channels are available.

Country is set to Poland.

U-NII-1
Ch 36: 5.180 GHz
Ch 40: 5.200 GHz
Ch 44: 5.220 GHz
Ch 48: 5.240 GHz

 

Looking even the Wikipedia, there should be a lot of more channels to be available and selectable, it is a bug?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_(802.11a/h/j/n/ac/ax)

 

So question is where are the: U-NII-2A, U-NII-2C, U-NII-3, U-NII-4?

 

Thanks,

    Hi drixter,

     

    As of now, there are no plans to get the certification for the WAX214.

        Hello,

         

        Any chance for update, because if channel is set to 80MHz then finally only one channel can be used which make this device very limited.

         

        Thanks,
