Turn off 2.4Ghz on individual APs that are in the same AP group.

700H WiFi.
With the older 700 (non H) controller I could turn off a 2.4Ghz radio, leaving on 5Ghz, on a single AP in a group. How is that done in the 700H?

Hi @jef,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to directly turn off the 2.4 GHz radio on a single AP when it belongs to an AP group. The radio settings apply to the entire AP group.

However, if your goal is simply to have that specific AP operate on 5 GHz only, you can achieve this by creating a separate AP group and assigning the AP to it:

• Go to Wireless > WLAN Settings > AP Group Settings and create a new AP group.

• Navigate to Wireless > Access Points > AP List, edit the desired AP, and move it to the new AP group.

• Under Wireless > WLAN Settings > SSID Settings, configure the new AP group to use 5 GHz only.

This way, that particular AP will run on 5 GHz only, while the rest of the APs in the original group remain unchanged.
