Before ordering a pair LiteStation-SR71 and SR71-A boards I called Ubiquiti to verify that the SR71-A would support 5 and 10MHz channel operation. I was assured that ALL Ubiquiti boards support 5/10MHz. I just received the boards today and the configuration menus don't seem to have this option where it should be according to the AirOS documentation.

Can someone clarify how this setup can be used to establish a bridge using 5/10MHz non-standard mode?

Thanks

Hello,

AirOS does not have supprot for 5/10Mhz mode for SR71-A

Thanks,

Mike

It would seem Atheros lists support for 5/10MHz channels with some (possibly all) of it's 11n chips. Is the problem just lack of software support within AirOS? I was clearly told by someone at Ubiquiti that 5/10MHz could be used. Is there an alternative to AirOS? Some mechanism of controlling the SR71-A directly to enable these channel widths?

Thanks

We are under heavy time pressure to test SR71A card performance with a Rocket M5 at the other end of the link. We were told to purchase the Litestation as the only means of hosting that card.
After a couple days of testing I am flummoxed as to how to access/control many of the 802.11N features that I imagined the SR71-A would support.
I am using the AirOS that came in the card we just received. I need to not only access channel bandwidths smaller than 20 MHz but also I cannot find
how to control the antenna chains. There are three antenna connections (chains?) on the SR71A yet I can find no way to activate or deactivate them for TX or Rx or Both. Please advise.
