Model: TL-WA1201  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: Firmware Version: 1.10.32 Build 221020 Rel.61052n(4555)

Hi All,

 

I'm running a newly installed TL-WA1201 ( 1.10.32 Build 221020 ), and I'm struggling to tune the 5GHz operating channel so that it does not overlap with other neighbouring wifi networks. The web interface allows me only to select a channel between 36 and 48 (yes, I tried to scroll, but there are no other entries in the drop-down menu  ). Can someone advise if this AP supports higher channels at all? I checked the documentation, but it doesn't seem to have such info.

 

Thanks!

TL-WA1201 doesn't support DFS channels - that's the reason for having only 36-48 channel range.

For optimal performance:

If you've set channel width to 40Mhz then choose between channels 36 and 44.

If you've set channel width to 80Mhz then use only channel 36.

  @terziyski Thanks for the reply. Sadly, this is not stated in the device specs, and I only found it after I bought it.
