So , any device that have N , and don't have AC compatibility can connect?

Yes, AC is backward compatible with N and A on the 5 GHz band...

There is no AC on 2.4GHz, only B, G, N...

Good to know.
I was afraid to chenge wdr4300 to archer C9 because i have only 1 device with AC compatibility.
Last doubt: If i set bridge at AC ONLY, and connect an N device, the bridge goes to N ?

In 2.4GHz when you set mode to b/g/n and connect a G device, your wifi works at G.
(I know is different because when you set N ONLY at 2.4ghz the b or g devices can't connect.)

My Archer C7 doesn't have "AC only" !
I have "A/N mixed" and "A/N/AC mixed".

"AC only" seems reserved to C8 and C9.
Even my Netgear R7000 doesn't have it...

I think "AC only" means "no A" and "no N" on the 5GHz band...
