NWA130BE MLO with Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra



Love these AP's! Now that the firmware is stable I have been trying to use them in MLO with a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. It is supposed to work with MLO but I have had No to limited success. I wanted to know if anyone else has had a successful configuration of the AP and the phone to establish an MLO connection.
As shown in the attached pics, I have setup an SSID on the 3 AP's for 5ghz & 6ghz. I have the 6ghz set to 320mhz channel and the 5ghz set to 80mhz. The security is set to WPA 3 without transition mode. In advanced SSID the MLO option is selected. In the site wide AP&Port settings I have MLO selected. On the Phone under connectivity labs I have wifi 7 mode enabled and I have tried Maximum Multi Link count at 2 and at 3. I have included a wifiman showing that all 3 APs show they are MLO.
When I connect to this SSID on the phone it shows wifi 6ghz + 5ghz. When I actually connect it foes immediately to only 5 or 6ghz.
Any Help would be appreciated. FWIW, the only time I think it connected as MLO was when I had 2.4ghz enabled on the SSID along with the others. I DO NOT want 2.4ghz used in MLO as I have that band saturated across all 3 APs with IOT devices.

Hi @TallyTexas,
When I connect to this SSID on the phone it shows wifi 6ghz + 5ghz. When I actually connect it foes immediately to only 5 or 6ghz.
Could you share the link rate status on your S24 Ultra? Also, could you share how you determine
"connect it foes immediately to only 5 or 6ghz"?Zyxel Melen0 -
Thanks so much for looking into this.
Sending 4 screen shots.
1. Shows available 6ghz + 5ghz MLO SSID I am going to connect to.
2. Shows when I connect to the SSID it is in 6ghz.
3. Shows my link speed, band info when connected to the SSID
4. Shows the frequency, security type & MLO info of the connected SSID. Please note the MLO info. It shows Link 0 unassociated and points to the MAC address of the actual Zyxel NWA130be AP im connected to (this mac address matches the main mac listed in the Nebula app) Link 1 shows associated. This mac points to the mac address of the 6Ghz radio on the Zyxel NWA130be I am actually connected to.

Hi @TallyTexas,
Thanks for the information.
To identify this issue, please help us:
- Record the timestamps for the latest WiFi connection.
- Your S24 Ultra WiFi MAC address.
- Enable Zyxel support access. FAQ link.
With these, we can check the event log and identify it.

Thank you! I just did ALL of that. I do not wish to post my MAC address in an open forum though so Inhave a screen shot saved and have enabled remote support access to Zyxel. What steps do I need to do at this point?
