I have 3 AC Minis (wave 2) and all three are on the same AP Profile “Default” which has channel selction set to “Auto”.
It looks like the 3 devices chose non-overlapping 5GHz channel, but all of them chose the same 2.4GHz Channel (Chanel 1).
I’d like to force them non-overlapping channels. What’s the best way to do this?
Under AP / Settings I could create 3 AP Profiles (one for each unit?)
Or under Controller Status / Access Point / AP Details (the little pencil icon) you can override the channel selection. There is a single popup menu with these options:
Follow AP Profile
Auto (Preferred Frequency)
2.4GHz:
Auto
… list of channels …
5GHz
Auto
… list of channels …
This confuses me, as it looks like you can either choose a 2.4GHz channel or a 5GHz channel, but not both at once?
I’m using Balance One 8.0.1 and AP Mini AC 7.0 firmware.
