AX86U - DFS Channels cleared in wireless log - but can not select in Wireless settings - Help

but now my AC86U can only join mesh on 2.4Ghz as it cannot see the 128 Channel ... Never ending story ...

I figured it out!

After adding my AC86U as node the channels 120 124 128 disapeared on the new router where I could see these channels before. I removed the AC86U from the mesh and the channels are available again .... Is this a bug?

Actually, probably a feature. It appears as if it's detecting that your mesh node can't support those channels so is keeping you from selecting them and getting yourself in trouble.

Your right! But how misleading if yiu do not know about it!

Old topic but a nice FYI. when DFS keeps being busy for hours (>6) run the site survey, within 1m you get the Idle state.

I don't think AX86U has site survey on stock firmware, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.
