Iphone X connects only with 1 chain

RouterOS Wireless Networking

Hello Everyone!

My problem is my devices only connects with one chain.
Everything else working fine, Noise level is -110dbm.
The C8 is the iPhone.


I also tried without capsman.
My Capsman config:

/caps-man configuration
add channel.band=5ghz-onlyac channel.control-channel-width=20mhz \
    channel.extension-channel=XXXX channel.reselect-interval=10h country=\
    hungary datapath.bridge=br-net datapath.client-to-client-forwarding=yes \
    datapath.local-forwarding=yes distance=indoors guard-interval=any \
    installation=indoor max-sta-count=9 mode=ap name=cfg3 \
    rates.ht-supported-mcs="" rates.vht-basic-mcs="" rates.vht-supported-mcs=\
    "" rx-chains=0,1,2 security.authentication-types=wpa2-psk \
    security.passphrase=Mypassword ssid=MySSID tx-chains=0,1,2

Thank you the advice, but something happened…
Yesterday I bought my 3rd hap ac, and take a look:




Its a small home network, and I want the same quality what is in my workplace :slight_smile:

(The parameters:
The main router is a hex.
Incoming connections:2 cable modem, one for the 500/25mbit net connection, and one for the ipTV… (Don’t ask why my provider the hungarian telekom give me two hgw).
So I need 3Vlan…
IPTV, home, guest.
We got 3 floor, so thats why 3 hap ac, maybe I’ll buy more.)

Now I totally confused. I won’t contact apple, cause my iphone working properly.

The other thing:
The speed is the same with/without 2 chain:
270mbit/25 wireless. 522/25 wired.

I found the problem!

When I provisioned the other two hap ac, I set up a slave configuration… If there is all chains enabled, It got priority… I simply deleted the slave config,
and the problem solved!

But then its a BUG.

Why a slave adapter get priorority? I thing the master is first…


Thank you everything! :slight_smile:

For the speeds:
When I deleted the slave setting from the hex, the wifi speed increased to 340mbit when it uses 2 chain (only 1 test), and still 270 with 1 chain.
