CAPsMAN different boards at 2.4 and 5Ghz one SSID

Dear all, hope someone can point me in the right direction. I started to use CAPsMAN as it seems a great tool. But how do you manage different interfaces?

If I set Configurations (capconfig) wifi only Country, it works with most computers, but windows computers cannot log in to “ac” network. Apple computers can. If I force a windows adapter to switch to the “n” network, they do work.

If I set width 20 extension Ceee it works on 5Ghz band, but the other interfaces are not functioning. (in red: no supported channel).

Currently use these types: RB2011UiAS-2HnD, RB951G-2HnD, RBwAPG-5HacT2HnD

Note: I like to have one network name for 2.4 and 5 Ghz (the same name)

Please start by sharing your configuration (/capsman export hide-sensitive).

“If I set width 20 extension Ceee it works on 5Ghz band, but the other interfaces are not functioning. (in red: no supported channel).”
Ceee = 4 x 20 = 80 MHz channel width. On the 2.4GHz radio, 40 MHz is the maximum bandwidth. Hence the message.

And current settings 5GHz:

Current State		running-ap
Current Channel		5640/20-eCee/ac/DP(27dBm)
Current Rate Set		OFDM:6-54 BW:1x-4x SGI:1x-4x HT:0-23 VHTMCS:SS1=0-9,SS2=0-9,SS3=0-9
Current Basic Rate Set		OFDM:6

Macbook works (same with phones)
Windows mentions: “could not connect to this network”. If I kill the 5Ghz network and windows needs to change to 2.4Ghz, or force with network-wifi-adapter to “n” standard, they do work.

You will generally have two provisioning rules at a minimum for a dual band radio. One for 2.4 and one for 5 GHz radiios. Just specify the correct settings for each radio and keep the ssid the same if that is what you want.

Thank you! That should work :slight_smile: Missed that part.

Thanks. Tested, creating a second provisioning with a different configuration solved the problem.
