My channel list does nothing.
The AC radio will still choose any (seemingly) random channel and
sometimes it grabs a noisy one and throws everything off. Or cuts
throughput in half or worse.
DFS timers will cut on for 15 minutes sometimes based on what it picks.
And the whole thing is a mess. Just confusing.
And now I see spectrum is using the DFS band and if your saying that the
radio doesn't know the difference between real DFS issues and noise then
we are in trouble as we are in the top of a 30 story building and
everyone has their own charter equipment and they are loud and proud.

Hi Alex,
You should have the option to limit the channel list under Wireless ->
Control Frequency List.
We are working on some features to help reduce false hits further and
improve channel selection on a hit.

OS8 does a better job at the issue however essentially if a
PrismAC radio sees activity on the DFS channel you are on that is
not part of its session list, it runs away and goes to another
channel.
I think its physically impossible for these class of radio systems
to actually detect the difference between Radar and just Signal on
that band.
I have had these discussions with UBNT, as well as others who use
other radio products and I think false detect is a common problem
on all platforms, not just UBNT.
The FAA really threw a fit about this issue and the FCC made this
a very strict certification requirement and so this is all that
can be done. Even AF5 has this issue.
We are going to start running a script that checks the radio ever
10 mins and if the freq has changed its going to change it back.
I guess if there is a war going on between dfs logic and our
logic, this may not work.
I also wonder if the channel list can be limited. I don't see it
in the UI. Perhaps UBNT folks listening can lend a hand here.

Hi Guys,
airMAX radios should only jump to another channel if a RADAR
hit is detected. I would suggest running a Frequency list
when operating in DFS bands.
That being said, this is most like related to a bug fixed in
airOS8beta16.
Ethan / Matthew: Could you forward the Support Info file from
an AP that has recently seen this?

Can't replicate that on the rocket ac's

Isn't DFS supposed to channel hop?
Have you tried blocking the higher noise frequencies to
prevent the use of those specific channels?

I have a 5AC PRISM doing the same thing. I manually
pick a DFS channel on
the wireless tab and the radio will go to a non-DFS
channel. Does not
matter which DFS channel I pick, it will go to a
non-DFS channel to operate.
It will let me manually pick a non-DFS channel and it
will stay on it. Not
auto, no freq list...

No, not confusing them.
Complaining about both.
DFS channel selection has a mind of it's own. With or
without a frequency
list.
And auto, does not pick the best channel, or anywhere
close.
