Note: When MU-MIMO is enabled, Tx beamforming is automatically enabled and you
cannot disable it.
To enable or disable MU-MIMO:
1. Connect your computer or mobile device to the AP in one of the following ways
•
Connect directly to the AP’s WiFi network or LAN. (Applies to the AP in either
operation mode.)
•
Connect to the same network that the AP is connected to. (Applies only if the AP
is operating in AP mode.)
2. Launch a web browser and enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
Instead, if you are connected to same network as the AP, enter the LAN IP address
that is assigned to the AP. For information about finding the IP address, see Find the
IP address of the AP when you cannot use routerlogin.net on page 32.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, dismiss the warning. For more information,
see Dismiss a browser security warning on page 38.
3. Enter the AP local device password.
The local device password is the one that you specified. The local device password
is case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings.
The Wireless Settings page displays. The lower part of the page is called the
Advanced Wireless Settings page. (As you scroll down on the page, the page name
changes.)
5. Select or clear the Enable MU-MIMO check box.
Selecting this check box enables MU-MIMO. By default, MU-MIMO is enabled.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved. The radios restart and WiFi clients might need to reconnect.
Enable or disable explicit beamforming
Explicit beamforming (which is the same as Tx beamforming) lets the AP actively track
WiFi clients and direct power to the AP antenna closest to the client.
