I asked this on the UBNT forum but received no answer. The 802.11n specification states that when an AP is set to 40MHz channels it should allow older gear that's only capable of 20MHz channels to connect in that mode as well. With 2.4GHz UBNT gear I'm finding that if the AP is set to 40MHz the

I'm presently using UBNT M gear as 2.4GHz APs. I've found that all client devices can connect on 20MHz channels and only some clients can connect on 40MHz channels. I also found that when the UBNT gear is in 40MHz channel mode it doesn't fall back to 20MHz for the clients that can't do 40MHz cha
