Hi,
sorry, I forgot to write an answer in this topic since James forwarded the Support Contact informations to me in private.
The problem has been solved by installing the firmware "V1.0.2.44_1.0.96" on my R8000.
I'm not sure about the latest version for your EX6150, but for my R8000 the (in my opinion) stable version was listed under the previous versions section.
In your case I would suggest to install several of the older versions, and try to change the configuration to see, if the error appears again.
kind regards,
Andreas

Hi Ikarus92,

Hi James,
the error message "This DFS channel is not allowed to use because the Radar was detected before. You can change another channel or wait" appears after I did any configuration changes on the following menu:
In Advanced -> Setup -> Wireless Setup
But as I already reported, the second 5G-Radio isn't even active (has been deactivated under: Advanced -> Advanced Setup -> Wireless Settings) and on the first 5G-Radio there isn't a dfs-channel choosen. It's running on channel 44
kind regards

Hi Ikarus92,
Did you configure the smart connect of the router?
