FVS318N Radio Channel manual config causes unexpected behaviour
On my FVS318N I have configured the wireless channel to use Channel 6 (2437 Mhz) as a manual setting. However, the Current channel reported by the GUI is Channel 3 (2422 MHz) Any effort in making a manual channel configuration persist fails completely. I need a fixed channel setting as another wireless bridge has been configured to extend the network to a wired section. Firmware Version: 4.3.3-6 (Latest) below is part of the config file related to the Radio. Is this a bug in the fimware? dot11Radio = {} dot11Radio[1] = {} dot11Radio[1]["path"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["dothMarkDfs"] = "0" dot11Radio[1]["beaconInterval"] = "100" dot11Radio[1]["txRate"] = "0" dot11Radio[1]["opMode"] = "ng40+" dot11Radio[1]["rtsCtsProtect"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["radioenabled"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["rtsThreshold"] = "2346" dot11Radio[1]["dothEnabled"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["uapsd"] = "0" dot11Radio[1]["txPower"] = "20" dot11Radio[1]["cardNo"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["rogueAPEnabled"] = "0" dot11Radio[1]["longRetry"] = "16" dot11Radio[1]["dtimInterval"] = "2" dot11Radio[1]["configuredChannel"] = "6" dot11Radio[1]["interfaceName"] = "wifi0" dot11Radio[1]["shortRetry"] = "16" dot11Radio[1]["radioNo"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["band"] = "b" dot11Radio[1]["xmlId"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["currentChannel"] = "2412" dot11Radio[1]["preambleMode"] = "Long" dot11Radio[1]["dothMaxPower"] = "30" dot11Radio[1]["fragThreshold"] = "2346" dot11Radio[1]["_ROWID_"] = "1" dot11Radio[1]["rxDiversity"] = "0" Appreciate your help and insights
