AP541: WDS via 5GHz, Clients via 2,4GHz

Is it possible to establish the WDS-connection on 5GHz and connect Wireless-Clients on 2,4GHz with these Acces-Points?

There are some threads concerning performance-issues in combination with WDS on 541 - any news on this with the actual software-release?

regards,

Alfred

Hi, My name is Eric Moyers. I am a Network Support Engineer in the Cisco Small Business Support Center. Thank you for using the Cisco Community Post Forums.

I'm sorry to say that it is not possible. The AP541N is a Dual band capable Access Point, but it only has one radio. What that means it that it will only do 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, but not both at the same time.

Hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks
