Insight Cloud Managed WiFi 6 AX3600 Access Point Model WAX620 (Continued) Setting MU-MIMO 802.11h Description By default, the MU-MIMO Enable radio button is selected and multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) is enabled. To disable MU-MIMO, select the MU-MIMO Disable radio button. MU-MIMO enables multiple users to receive data from the access point simultaneously using the same channel. With MU-MIMO, the access point can transmit to multiple clients simultaneously using the same channel. MU-MIMO is used in the downstream direction and requires both the access point and the WiFi clients to be capable of 802.11ac Wave 2 or 802.11ax. Select the 802.11h Enable radio button to enable 802.11h-capable WiFi clients to automatically switch to a new channel without disconnecting from the access point and without losing any data when the access point changes to another channel. By default, the 802.11h Disable radio button is selected and 802.11h is disabled. You can enable or disable 802.11h for the 5 GHz radio but not for the 2.4 GHz radio. 6. Click the Apply button. A warning pop-up window displays. 7. Click the OK button. The pop-up window closes and your settings are saved. The radio or radios restart and WiFi clients might need to reconnect. Manage the maximum number of clients for a radio The number of clients that are allowed to associate with a radio affects the reliability and throughput of the WiFi connection. A smaller number can increase the reliability and throughput and a large number can decrease the reliability and throughput. By default, one radio allows up to 200 client associations. You can specify a lower number of clients. If the number of associated clients exceeds the maximum number that you specify, the radio rejects new client associations until the number drops below that maximum number.
