About SXK80
Hi
I have just upgraded from RBK50 to SXK80 and I have some questions:
I configure AP mode on Router SXR80
1. How can I enable 2.4GHz & 5GHz on Satellite & Router? In RBK50, 2 bandwidths will be enabled.
2. How can I link aggregation SXR80 in AP mode? I tried to bind port 2 & 3 and configured in pfsense but it failed.
3. Any region is better North America? More channels (12 & 13) will be better?
4. Default settings are NONE in debug.htm. It will be better if I tick Enable UL-OFDMA and UL-MUMIMO?
5. Can anyone share best configuration?
Thank you!

According to your screenshot, the satellite is active on both the 2.4 and the 5 GHz band.

Static Link aggregation (in my understanding) is possible in any way. The "how-to" is shown in the fine Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX6000 Tri-band WiFi System (SXK80) User Manual, p.135 ff. Lack of any insight and the crystal ball, no clue what you have configurd on your security appliance and the Orbi Pro AX base station, and how you come to the impression that it "failed".

It's not about "better" - it's about the legislation where you operate the system. It's about valid and allowed channels, and the maximal emitted power.

Unless you experience issues with wireless clients, you can try to enable both.
