Hello everyone,

I updated several H series FWs to latest firmware but I cannot see MLO options for WiFi managed:

Where can I find it to use all the hardware options of the APs installed on Clients' sites?

    Hi @GiuseppeR

    Since the WiFi 7 enforces new MLO change, the MLO option is not available on the configuration page, and enables by default. For more details, please reference this FAQ:

    Hi @Zyxel_Melen

    thanks for that link, I missed it.

    So this is the reason why there is this change also on Nebula?

    So following this detail:

    And this detail:

    When you set a new SSID:

    • Old WiFi devices goes only to 2.4/5 GHz via "WPA2" when "WPA3 Transition Mode" is activated
    • MLO is enabled on 2.4/5 GHz when you select at least "WPA3 Transition Mode"
    • MLO is enabled on 6 GHz when you select natively "WPA3" OR it autoconverts to "WPA3" when you have selected "WPA3 Transition Mode"

    So selecting this:

    And this:

    Is the way to use MLO on 2.4 + 5 + 6 GHz…. Am I correct?

    Hi @GiuseppeR

    MLO feature is enforced enabled for every SSID on WiFi 7 device. The only option to disable MLO is to change the Radio setting for each band. Therefore, change SSID settings will not disable MLO.

    Hi @Zyxel_Melen

    very nice to know, so every AP "XYZbe" WiFi7 capable has MLO active per default.

    Do you mean the Radio settings that you can find here?

    Hi @GiuseppeR

    Yes. You can scroll down to adjust by each AP.
