Ron, Did you verify with certainty that you were connected to the AP that you thought you were on?

This summer, we had the company who installed the access points produce heat mapping summaries of the buildings. In three of the four buildings, we had high efficiency mode enabled on the access points. Has anyone using these access points noticed a degraded signal when this mode is enabled? I was sitting almost in front of one of the access points that is showing to be active and pretty decent coveage where I was sitting but getting very low wireless signal from my laptop (even after I rebooted the laptop, disconnected from wifi and reconnected). I'm trying to get a version of the firmware we are running - there was a conflict in one of the buildings that had a cluster of 215s and 515s and the 215s couldn't run the more recent version of firmware so our consultant may have downgraded us to one that both models could support. Just curious about experiences you might have had with the high efficiency mode on and off and whether signal is better on either setting.
