mu-mimo works in AP mode？

[Fergus_Huang]

Hello, I am wondering if I have a netgear router that supports mu-mimo, and change its operation mode from router to AP, will the mu-mimo still works？

Thanks for answering.

Yey, of course it does. MU-MIMO is done on the WiFi/Radio module processor, independant on how it's connected or on how the GbE ports are bridged/routed.

You would think it does but how you be sure it is working in the first place.

Yes, this is the problem. Only Linksys EA9500 has an indicator in the market, I have no way to confirm it so I ask here.

Maybe a simpler choices is to choose a AP which supports MU-MIMO, because this is its main function.
