Hi! Can you share the model of the two routers? That could happen due to https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/issues/661

Thank you for your reply, the two router models are WPJ563

Is that 5 GHz only?

Is that 5 GHz only?

2.4GHz only

So yes, the linked issue applies here. Looks like FBW is designed for LibreRouter and works only on dual band routers. But it should be easy to extend to support 2.4 GHz-only routers.

Do you think there are any place on the lime packages where it checks if is 2.4GHz only? Fix will be faster if I found a place where is already implemented
