You will still be able to use the 5G band for client access even when you are using Mesh.

Hi Andrea,

Thanks for your quick reply , I was confused because I read some conversation here , they have mentioned ,during Mesh activated (wired connection down) user cannot be use  5G band because of that band used for uplink traffic,

But that one 2 years ago old conversation
