WAX214v2 - Device Status - Statistics - AP 2.4GHz/5GHz - What time period do Tx & Rx bytes apply to?
Hi,
Re WAX214v2 WiFi 6 AX1800 access point
Simple question - on the 'Device Status' page, under 'Statistics - Access Point 2.4GHz/5GHz' at the bottom of the page, can anyone tell me what time period the Rx(bytes) and Tx(bytes) figures apply to ?
Regards

In absence of any time information: Since boot time, for the total uptime. The same applies to the Tx(Bytes) Rx(Bytes) shown in the Connections list..

Thanks for your reply, this can't be right as the figures are not cumulative and go down as well as up, which is why I'm confused as to the time period they apply to. I can find no comment in any of the documentation regarding these figures.

This wasn't written correct I'm afraid, sorry for the confusion.
Dashboard -> Device Status -> Statistics - Access Point 2.4GHz/5GHz is counting up the data by SSID as long as the device is up.
Dashboard -> Connections -> Device Status -> Connection List 2.4 GHz and -> Connection List 5GHz is counting up as long as the wireless device is associated (connected). If the wireless client does change the band or is temporary disconnected, the associated counter is reset.
Can't see any relation to a different or fixed time window. Does this fit to your observation?
