nwa220ax-6e ax201 5ghz wpa3 combination does not work

Jomr

Hi,

I have 2 nwa220ax-6e and when I turn off transition mode on the AP for WPA3 on 5ghz, ax201 card is not able to connect. It works with asus and unifi.

Can you please fix this?

Also when do you plan to include turning off of transition mode option into nebula pls? This option is now disabled.

Thank you

Hi @Jomr ,

For the AX201, AX210, and similar series, in addition to using the 'no transition-mode' command in the CLI on the AP, it's necessary to execute the 'dot11w-op 2' CLI command. This command sets the PMF (Protected Management Frames) value to 2, which indicates it is active (True).

Please refer to the updated FAQ for detailed instructions. If you encounter any issues or have updates, let us know.

Sorry, need to correct myself - network card is ax201. Fixed my previous message.
