MU-MIMO can't be enabled on BE800

Model: Archer BE800

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.1.1

I've upgraded my BE800 to FQ v1.1.1 a while which don't have a problem.

However, when I check my BE800 & RE815XE today for any setting can be fine tuned, then I found MU-MIMO cannot be used. If I'm not wrong, I used it when my BE800 was FW v1.0.12 & FW v1.0.9 (when I first installed to use it). I've tried again to set to use "OFDMA+MU-MIMO" but it only set to "OFDMA only". I tried to downgrade the firmware to v1.0.12 & v1.0.9 to verify if this is a bug by v1.1.1, but the downgrade process failed which should be due to v1.1.x can't be reverted to v1.0.x.

Any advise how I can use MU-MIMO on BE800 v1.1.1? Please note I still can use OFDMA+MU-MIMO on RE815XE. I'm use MESH.

Archer BE800 v1_v1.1.5 RE815XE v1_1.0.6 RE705X v1_1.0.10

You can try the FW release from this post for the MU-MIMO issue on BE800 v1.

That's normal - it's beta FW version aiming to fix the MU-MIMO issue. When the next stable FW comes these watermarks would be gone.

@terziyski is anyone getting constant crashing with both the 1.1.1 and the 1.99.97 beta build? My router crashes and restarts at least twice a day.
