No data rates are good and some will connect to 5ghz ok some others don’t and some connect to 5ghz but are unstable and shift to 2.4. I’m hoping it’s just driver and going to try that tomorrow based off the link. I also was just told that not all these machines have same card majority are the T6e but seems a few are T4e cards. I haven’t actually gone through each machine because I’ve just messing with a few and was going off what the vendor who sells this gear was telling they used. Should’ve learned by now when they used dual band ac cards but installed single lead antennas without disabling the second port on the card or diversity or mimo that I just have to check everything.

Tp link support suggests only using channel 36 to get them to connect to 5ghz. I’ve tried this and still some don’t connect to 5ghz but yet some do. Tried some different drivers from tp supprt page still no change. The cards are ac dual port and the company first sent single port antennas to connect. I tried to explain to them how this won’t work well given the card has antenna diversity and mimo enabled on it by default. Anyway we are now getting dual port antennas but still seeing lots of issues with the cards connecting or staying on 5ghz. They connect ok to the network just always 2.4 and there are no settings in the advanced tab of drivers to prefer band like intel has. I found this on tp link supprt site and going to try this driver next as it’s different than the driver listed on card main support page https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/222782<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.tp-link.com%2Fen%2Fhome%2Fforum%2Ftopic%2F222782&data=04%7C01%7CTrent.hurt%40LOUISVILLE.EDU%7C3954de14d8c542d89c8408d8fa160ca2%7Cdd246e4a54344e158ae391ad9797b209%7C0%7C0%7C637534319898469031%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=7wz25ncpzMTYYmtf3hioYQu44DWDwtKz0NcxUfmxtFg%3D&reserved=0> Again just hoping someone else has solved this puzzle and can just give me something else to look at. I did pcap and the cards only seem to support Unii 1 36-48 but again the tp link says to only use 36. Thanks Trent Sent from my mobile device.
