Radio power levels

    Is there a way to control both radio's power on an IAP-225?  I set one setting in the GUI for min/max tx power, but that's it.  I set the min/max to 15dBm which seems to only apply to 5GHz.  When I issue "show ap bss-table", 2.4 is operating at 21dBM.  Any thoughts?

     What version of IAP Os are you running ? I am running the latest 4.1.1.1 and it looks like it works

    4.1.1.1 as well.

     

    I set my 2.4 valid channels to 1 only and it's stuck on 6 so I may have a bigger issue here.  Going to reboot the IAP to see if that helps.  Even if it does fix the issue of 2.4 and 5 power levels not matching, is it possible to independantly control their power?

    Maybe a 225 issue ? I am using an IAP135
