Who Me Too'd this topic

Hello,

I saw this topic here. But I would like understand why all upper 5Ghz channels are unavailabled for the clients.

In Europe, at least in France, we can use the next channels in 80Mhz :

• 36, 40, 44, 48
• 52, 56, 60, 64
• 100, 104, 108, 112
• 116, 120, 124, 128

So, we have 4*80Mhz available.

Why Orbi cannot do a channels distribution like this (or another order)?

• 36, 40, 44, 48 : choice of user to assign them to the Orbi base or satellite
• 52, 56, 60, 64 : choice of user to assign them to the Orbi base or satellite
• 100, 104, 108, 112 : choice of user to assign them to the Orbi base or satellite
• 116, 120, 124, 128 : dedicated to backhaul

With such a possibility, we can avoid signal noise from neighbours and from the other Orbi devices.

Because now, Orbi base uses the same channels as Orbi satellite(s), which is really not optimized.

And I have neighbours with same 5Ghz channels in use.

Can someone explain to me why all 52 to 128 channels are locked for users?
