Hi Flavio, You understanding is correct. If you try to enable this feature on AP with only one enabled antenna you will get the error message like this: To enable ClientLink you need to at least enable antennas A and B. I read somewhere that if one of the signals is fading the extra antenna might be used for redundancy, but again this is not mandatory. Regards, Oliver

In theory TxBeamforming should not require the antenna C (middle one is only Rx) to be used since it´s a TX technology and it should only require the radios A and B. If the request was about MRC with optimum gain than I will agree that the 3 "antennas" (radio chains) should be enabled to "hear" the client with the 3 receivers. Any comments about it? I´m afraid of to get this kind of question that you can´t really verify if it´s working and the configuration that I saw people recommending does not look correct.
