WLC: 802.11n/ac - enabling both modes (11n and 11ac) or only 11ac?

[HOLGER HAHN]

In "802.11n/ac (5 GHz) Throughput" configuration should I enable only 11ac mode or 11n mode, too?
Most of our notebooks are newer models with 11ac capabilities.

WLC 5508 (version 8.5.171.0)
AP only AIR-AP2802I-E-K9

You have to enable 802.11n if you want to use 802.11ac.

Info: If you disable 802.11n, the 802.11ac radio is also disabled.
