If you have a dual band windows machine try installing Acrylic WiFi<BR /><BR />Alternatively, if you have a controlled environment then go to the AP management screen of the AP and you should see the BBS-ID's listed with the relevant radio.&nbsp; Fri, 24 Jun 2016 07:33:13 GMT https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/Access-Points-Indoor-and-Outdoor/2-mac-addresses-broadcasting-in-an-AP/m-p/17278#M4536 robert_lowe_722 2016-06-24T07:33:13Z
