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?
What's doing the wireless analysis? I am using inSSIDer
do you have your EX8000 setup in extender mode or AP mode? Extender Mode
did you set it up via wps or the installation wizard? Installation Wizard
What firmware is on the EX8000? V1.0.1.206
On the R7900P? V1.4.1.42_1.3.4 ( I was going to update to the latest one that came out a few days ago but people are reporting too many issues)
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?
is the extender working? Yes
is it just inssider reporting the issue? I only use nSSIDer - Would you recommend another one to see if the errors are consistant?
Here is a more detailed issue (I have attached a screen shot) :
1. Your acceess Points in the 2.4ghz band are not all configured with the same PHY Types: b/g/n/ac and b/g/n. We recommend configuring all access points in each band the same.
2. Your access points in the 2.4 ghz bad are not all configured with the same extended capabilities. We recommend configuring all access point in each band the same.
3. Your access points in the 2.4 ghz bad are not all configured with the same VHT Capabilities.We recommend configuring all access points in each band the same.
4. Your access points in the 2.4 ghz bad are not all configured with the same HT Capabilities.We recommend configuring all access points in each band the same.
I was forced to disable the 5ghz band because it was causing my devices to continuous disconnect and causing too many issues. I am trying to isolate the issue.
do you have the 2.4ghz speed set for 450mbps and airtime fairness enabled? Speed set to Up to 400Mbps in the extender. In the 7900P its set to Up to 450 Mbps. I cannot change the extender, when you set it up, it does this automatically. On the extender I have enabled 20/40 MHz coexixtence and Enable One Wifi Name.
I dont see airtime Fairness.
