Currently using three 5dBi Delock RP-SMA (Asus WL-ANT157) antennas on my AC68U(374.43_2). Only need to cover one floor in the house while several other APs are around my apartment.
While playing around with tx power (e.g. lowering from default 80 to 60 or 40 because of switch from default 2dBi Asus stock antennas to 5dBi Delock) I noticed that the implemented auto channel selection algorithm only performs correct if I choose tx power 100. Just noticed that when lowering tx power below 100 the auto channel selection outcome is always non-optimal. This is true for both 2,4 and 5Ghz bands. I have also observed this behaviour with using the stock antennas on my AC68u instead of the Delock ones.
I´m interested if anyone else also noticed this? Seems to me that auto channel selection should not be recommended if not switched tx power to 100.
