Darren,
I'm a little perplexed by these continued ambiguous responses about MIMO/BeamForming. I see posts dated all the way back to last yr and as of today 8/23/2017 there still no fix or actual respose for this issue.
Does it work or not? Why is it still unchecked even after the V1.12.0.18 FW upg?

FWIW - i'm on 1.12.0.18 and have both enabled, my system works really well, no significant drops and everything is very stable. That said, stability was much the same before I enabled them (on same f/w).

Marty - so that's what I'm talking about: For you it was checked (assume after you did a FW upg).... while for me... it was unchecked and stayed the same after the FW upg....
So what gives?
