I'm running ME8.8.111.0 in a small setup with 3 APs and was wondering why DCA with channel-width "best" sticks with 20MHz channels. I tried to set them to 40MHz instead of "best":
>config advanced 802.11a channel dca chan-width 40
ERROR: Configured DCA channels are in invalid combination for selected Channel Width.
Checking the channels looks normal to me:

Any idea why the controller complains about an invalid combination?
Thanks,

Thanks for your hints.
Unfortunately changing the GUI settings yields the same error message. Rebooting did not help either.
