802.11a not coming up

Hello all,

I am trying to enable the 802.11a and use the 5Ghz band in my house. However, I am having difficulty in doing this. Please see screenshot below. I have select AU (Australia) as my regulatory domain (2nd image). 802.11a band is enabled(3rd image), but the interface is still down (1st image). Australia regulatory code is -Z. Not sure why -A and -N are showing up

In the cli, the dot11 radio interface is down. This might be the issue? If so, how would I turn this on from the wlc management page?

Note: I've tried other regulatory domains - US, US and Mexico, but to no avail.

 

note 2: now, both radio interfaces are admin down.

If you reference this document you will notice that although Australia is -Z for stand-alone access points, it is -N for 802.11abgnac Controller based access points, and -A for 802.11gn Controller based access points.

What model of access point are you currently working with?
