Solved: AP 1142N dual radio 2.4GHz and 5GHz

What determines which radio a client associates with?

I have radio 0 the 2.4 set to channel 8 (just for testing purposes at my desk) and the channel width to below 40. And the radio 1 the 5GHz set to DFS band 2 above 40.

Is it totally the client settings and client card type (a,b,g,n)?

I would go with:

speed basic-11.0 12.0 18.0 24.0 36.0 48.0 54.0 m0. m1. m2. m3. m4. m5. m6. m7. m8. m9. m10. m11. m12. m13. m14. m15.

power client local

channel width 20

channel 2412 (1) ( 2437 6, 2462 11)

station-role root

Basically, disable all rates below 11. This shrinks the cell size which can help if a client is 'sticking' to an AP instead of roaming when it should.
