dfs channel change on latest 102.7 causes loss of connection with internet access pt

[lgkahn]

anything i do about this.. i have a bostrend ac1200 ap only being use to connect a apc nas network card to my network.. not being used as a true ap.
everytime it looses connection when the main wifi router it connects to changes the channel because of radar dfs i believe.

i am not using the 6ghz channel for these connections so why should detecting radar cause them to drop off?

5 GHz also detects RADAR in the DFS channels. If this happens frequently just disable DFS channels. But, do not force 160 MHz! Use 20, 40, 80, 160 MHz.
FWIW - I've learned that is best (for me) to use the Asus default WIFI settings...mostly. I do have DFS enabled but set to 20, 40, 80 MHz on 5 GHz with the SmartConnect enabled. I have no WIFI issues with connections!

i am using hard coded channel 36 on the single 5ghz band enabled on this router.. i would have thought from ai that dfs would not be an issue here?

is the only way to avoaid this to turn off 160mhz from reading i though channel 36 which i hard coded is dfs free. but maybe the extension channel is causing the issue
