We used to have a mesh running under AOS6 between two AP175. It was pretty straightforward with 5GHz for the mesh and 2.4GHz for the SSID broadcast. Roughly 300 feet between the two APs.
I've redone the mesh since our upgrade to AOS8. However, I cannot get the mesh point to connect. When I do a "show ap mesh neighbors ap-name Mesh-Portal" I see the MAC address of the point...

After a minute, It changes from a "child" to a "neighbor"...

...and then it reboots.
Before taking it out to the field, I set it up in my office and it worked just fine. Thoughts?
