    Hi!

     

    I have mesh built from iap-345 (wired) and iap-325 (wireless).

    power limits are 12-18 for 2.4g and 18-24 for 5g.

    despite limits iap-325 shows 30db for 5g and 26db for 2.4g, causing clients to stick to it, as signal is stronger even when standing next to iap-345.

     

    both AP running 8.6.0.3

     

    thanks!

    Where/how are you determining the output power?
