NWA50AX: No 802.11r mobility domain in header

papu

Using a packet sniffer I am unable to detect the 802.11r mobility domain information for NWA50AX.

For NWA210AX, this 802.11r info seems to be available, for the same SSID.

Does that mean that NWA50AX does not support 802.11r fast roaming?
Firmware: V6.29(ABYW.1)

Hi @papu,

Since we found association issue of activating 802.11r on small business series models AP (NWA50AX, NWA55AXE, NWA90AX) cause some specific clients cannot associate to AP normally, we deactivated this feature in current released small business model firmware to avoid service impact.

We have solved 802.11r association problem on small business models AP internally, now preparing new firmware release progress and expect to release 2023 mid January.

Please help us to keep an eye on our website for any latest news.

Thank you.

dear Zyxel, its almost 2Q2023 and still no update on this matter, May I suggest you modify your marketing material and technical specs that NWA50/55/90 does not support fast roaming.

Thank you.
