Therefore, you are advised to add the member ports to no more than 500 VLANs at a time. Changing the type of more than 20 ports together may cause the CPU usage to exceed 80% in a short period. Therefore, you are advised to change the type of ports one by one....
During the check process, the 5GHz signal will not be able to connect. The process of channel availability check (CAC) will take 1~10 minutes, and the specific time depends on the country/region. Please note that 2.4GHz can still be used normally when checking channel availability, so ...
When you connect one or more satellite Deco units to the main Deco unit through a switch, then you may need to add some configurations on the switch so that the guest network will work properly on the satellite Deco units. Case 1: If you have an unmanaged switch. ...
