Perhaps by using same channel, the end device will have to quickly jump onto the strongest transceiver? vs 2 separate channels that have similar strength thus end device have trouble picking when to jump channel or bouncing back-n-forth between 2 transceivers continuously? Just speculating on my part.
My wheels are spinning faster now.LoL
Just asking which one is better will get you an answer, but it may or may not get you the answer that you need.
Home is one hardwire PC, Telo, NAS.
on 5Ghz a few gaming laptops, few school laptops , smart phones
on 2.4Ghz 30+ Wi-Fi cams, sensors, meters, printer, etc.
I'd say low-ping 5Ghz and range is more important than bandwidth....
Thanks for your detailed confirmation.
It answers the what it's doing now. I'm left with why? and does other mesh systems operate in the same manner?
It's time to ask the AI agents out there

Took small bit homework to find and manually updated the FW.
The interface isn't great but I figured it out. Our smaller house is ok without extender or Mesh network further.
A little hiccup with WPA3 so changed to wpa2.
Only issue now is a weird some tracks on Plex to Sonos not playable.
Thx for the suggestion. I think it'll work out well for me.
1) Disable SON on wifi advanced settings, ie create separate SSID's for 2.4, 5, and 6ghz radios.
2) Use WPA3 for 6ghz wifi.
3) Disable DFS channels (setting is under Radio Management).
4) Disable IPv6. I think this is optional. I didn't experience any issues or benefits with this enabled or disabled.
We have Plex Media server...no issues with streaming locally or remotely.
