    That Channel.C error message might be cosmetic.  What is the error number?

     

    It looks like your users cannot get on because your AAA server is not responding.

    Thanks Colin,

     

    Here is the complete log . And this error is for each of the APs.

    That "interference" is just foreign access points that the system can see.  It does not mean there is severe interference.

    Hi,

     

    The same error is found on multiple locations now in different controllers for all the APs. Is this error really servcie affecting and can disconnect users from WiFi network.

    802.11g 40MHz channel pair - 1-5,7-11

    802.11a 40MHz channel pair - 149-153 , 157-161

    This is all I see for ID.  You should not have 40mhz channels for the AP225..

    Thanks a lot Colin. This will certainly help.

     

    This error "An internal system error has occurred at file channel.c function ch_check line" does not seem to affecting the WiFi network.

     

    Thanks again Colin for a quick response and I will check for 40MHz channel on AP225 for ID country code and will let you know.

     

    Regards
