Audience as CAP Configure all 3 radios

Newbie question…

I’m playing around with configuring a Mikrotik Audience as a CAP. After much reading and a long night, I created 3 basic configurations for each radio.

cfg1-2.4GHz
cfg2-5GHz
cfg3-5GHz

I was able to provision the first two configurations to the 2.4GHz and first 5GHz radios by setting the “Hw. Supported Modes” to gn for 2.4GHz radio and an for the first 5GHz radio. Not sure if this is the correct way to do it but it works. I can’t get the 3rd radio configured to use cfg3-5GHz as it defaults to cfg2-5GHz.

Can anyone give me a hint (or more than a hint) on how to provision the 3rd radio to use the correct configuration?

You can have only two configurations/provisioning rules. Set the provisioning for 5Ghz to 00:00:00:00:00:00 instead of the MAC of each CAP.
One for 2.4 and one for 5Ghz
The trick is to not select a frequency for 5Ghz and have the 3rd wlan enabled on the Audience.
You might also need to set the band for 5Ghz to a/n/ac.
Worked just fine when I tested.
hint: will take some time for the 2nd 5Ghz interface to be active because of DFS. Be patient.

Thanks that worked.
