I was setting up a Force 300 radio with the intent of having it act as an AP for 3 SMs, but when I updated to 4.3.2.1 and switched it to AP mode, I discovered it only allows PTP mode as an AP. We had utilized the AP mode for several tiny networks, and it's super-useful. Is that capability absolutely not coming to the Force 300?

Hi,

We don't have plans to support TDD PMP on F300-x radios.

It is supposed to use ePMP3000 and ePMP3000L in PMP AP role.

Thank you.

> Upon internal discussion, we are considering allowing Force300 SMs to act as PMP AP, allowing upto 12 SMs to connect. Will update very soon once it’s finalized and which firmware it will be done. Also, this will be available at no additional cost or licensing, etc. Just a firmware upgrade. Thanks.
