Steps to enable MLO

[hopkinsjames]

Hello, I cant see to find any documentation on the steps required to enable MLO on Meraki, somewhere it says enabled by default, if so how to you disable it? I would assume the settings would be in the 'Radio settings' area. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Here is it.

Thanks @alessandrodematos thats the overall setting for WiFi7 / 892.11be, what if you didn’t want MLO enabled?

[aleabrahao]

In order for Wi-Fi 7 clients to connect at 11be rates or perform MLO (Multi-Link operation), 802.11be must be explicitly enabled in the Meraki Dashboard.

There is no option to enable or disable just MLO.

One more thing, this is a mandatory feature for Wi-Fi 7 certification.

Thanks, mandatory to offer it. But most other vendors allow you turn it off/on separately to WiFi 7 being enabled or not.
