2.4 GHz Configuration Mismatch

After a wireless analysis I am getting an error - 2.4GHz Configuration Mismatch. Your access point in the 2.4 GHz Band are not all configured with the same HT Capabilities. We recommend configuring all access points in each band the same. The band are not all configured with the same PHY Types: EX8000 b/g/n/ac and R7900P b/g/n. How can I make the EX8000 b/g/n or the R7900P b/g/n/ac to make them match.

    What's doing the wireless analysis? 

    do you have your EX8000 setup in extender mode or AP mode?

    did you set it up via wps or the installation wizard?

    What firmware is on the EX8000?

    On the R7900P?

        Yeah the version with armor hasn't been well recieved.

        is the extender working? 

        is it just inssider reporting the issue? 

        do you have the 2.4ghz speed set for 450mbps and airtime fairness enabled?
