MR70 5GHz channel selection only 36 -124
My MR70 only allows me to select 5GHz channels 36 - 124. Also it will not allow me to select the BW. It always defaults to 120MHz or 8 channels. Then when there it see traffic on channels 52 - 64 ...
Your "up to ****mbps" is what sets your channel width.
I don't have that specific system to play with but the 70 series has the faster speeds than the 60 series because it does allow 160hz wide channels. If you're using the 160hz wide channels, it has to be in a channel grouping that supports it. That'd be the 36-124. If you want to use other channels, set your speeds from "up to 2400mbps" to "up to 1200mbps". that'll narrow it to 80hz wide channels.
