Note: In countries where use of the 6GHz band is not allowed or authorized or if there is no current software support, the 6GHz radio will be disabled and will switch to a 5GHz and operate as a dual 5GHz access point. The 6GHz radio may be enabled with future software, once the product is certified to operate at 6GHz for that country.
