Hello Sorry, I'm kind of discovering all those wifi stuff and I'm not sure to follow your argument. What I can see in current DB version is that some E.U. countries have it enabled : e.g. Germany : |country DE: DFS-ETSI (2400 - 2483.5 @ 40), (100 mW) (5150 - 5250 @ 80), (100 mW), NO-OUTDOOR, AUTO-BW (5250 - 5350 @ 80), (100 mW), NO-OUTDOOR, DFS, AUTO-BW (5470 - 5725 @ 160), (500 mW), DFS # short range devices (ETSI EN 300 440-1) (5725 - 5875 @ 80), (25 mW) # 60 GHz band channels 1-4 (ETSI EN 302 567) (57000 - 66000 @ 2160), (40) | Regards, Mathieu Peyrega Le 07/09/2017 ? 14:38, Ryan Mounce a ?crit?: > Hi Mathieu, > > The permitted power within 5725-5875 MHz is only 25mW / 14dBm EIRP, as > far as I am aware this was also the case prior to 2014.
