How to override the WiFi radio in the Access Point settings?

We suggest manual channel configuration for advanced users only. Generally, the use of the automated WiFi AI function is recommended. Regular WiFi setting updates (depending on the maintenance window configuration) provide reliable and continuous adaption to changing RF environments.

To change the WiFi radio settings you need to:

1. Log into the Plasma Cloud console;
2. Select the Organisation and Network with the Access Point of interest from the top right menu;
3. Navigate to Access Points in the main menu on the left; and
4. Click on the device you wish to configure in the Access Point table.

This leads you to the individual Access Point settings page (example screenshot below).

Here, you can manually select the channel, channel width and TX power for each WiFi radio using the drop-down menus. You can also change the wireless mesh settings for this particular device. Click the Save button to apply your settings changes to this Access Point. 

Access Points using wireless mesh must use the same WiFi channel as at least one nearby wired Access Point to ensure Internet connectivity.
