    Posted Dec 15, 2015 04:20 PM

    Hi all,

     

    When i ran an ARM history log, i seem to have a lot of the following..

     

    2015-12-15 16:49:58  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 15:55:34  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 14:25:39  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 13:36:13  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 13:10:58  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 11:57:44  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 10:45:44  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 10:02:06  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 09:12:50  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 06:23:02  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 04:39:42  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 03:37:12  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 02:44:22  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 01:40:32  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-15 01:05:23  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-14 23:49:21  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT
2015-12-14 20:31:41  13           13-          21         21         NO40INT

     

    Question really is what does NO40INT actually mean?

     

    I appreciate it's labelled as 'intol' but i have no idea what that means either!

     

    Thanks

    :)

    If you look at the legend below the output of the command, you will see:

     

    NO40INT: 40MHz intol cleared on 2.4G

     

    You also have channel 13-  You should not be running 40mhz channels on the 2.4ghz band...

    Hi, 

     

    That refers to HT 40MHz Intolerance. 

     

    Thanks,

    Thanks guys,

     

    So what does it mean by 'intolerant'?

     

    I guess thats interefernce?

    Set Wide channels to 5ghz only and see if it goes away.

    Ok well that seems to have sorted it i think.

     

    The reason i say i think, is that the log is showing im on channel 13-, but the AP is shwing im on channel 1?

    The BSS table also shows Ch1.

     

    Thanks

    Is 12-15 the last time it changed channel?

    As you can see it shows 16.49 on December 15th.

     

    I've just got in now and re-run the log, (as above) and it still shows the same, and doesn't register here as being on Ch1, which it still is. 

     

    And, as you suggested recently, i have set wide channels to 5GHZ only.

     

    Also...

     

    Just spotted this...

     

    Minimum Transmit Power            :30
Maximum Transmit Power            :127
Band Steering Mode       :disable
Client Aware             :enable

     This is the Arm configuration log.

     

    I have ARM set to ... min 15 and max to max, for both bands.

    As a practical matter, changing the wide channels to only 5ghz is a manual, not an adaptive radio management change, so it probably won't update the history until ARM changes the channel from 1 or to another power.
