BUG - APs using the same 2.4ghz channel.

Hey,

Have you got Dyn Chan enabled in the Access Point Config?

(Wireless -> Access points)

Have you got time based Scan enabled? hopefully they are not both set to the same time

Hi Gavin,

yes, they have dynamic channel selection enabled and for a while there they were on different channels.

Hi Ian,

Being that close, have you got the power output turned down?

I run my 100C at 75%, as I was having issues with iPhones conencting when it was at 100%

Try setting a timechedule for the scan, and make sure both are at different times

Hi Gavin,

last discussion about this subject advised the scanning wasn't required.

I only added the second AP to overcome a problem with iPhones, IPv6, VLANs and clientless authenticating. I think the consensus last time this discussion occurred was tp split the SSIDs in two so that 2.4 and 5 were on different SSIDs.

Looks like a restructure wii be required to reduce the number of APs, remove the VLAns, two APs for 7 devices is a bit of an overkill.

Hi lan,

Can you please enable "Time-based scan" for both AP on 2.4Ghz band.? This feature should prevent you to get the same channel. 

Please try and let me know. 

Thanks.

Hi Sanni,

at this stage I haven't had to implement the time scan, the devices have worked out the issue by themselves, currently on different channels and have been for about 36 hours.
