What are Radio Profiles?

Radio profiles are a default set of configurations that will be applied to an Access Point. Each access point can have one profile applied to it. The profile decides if radios are enabled or disabled. It also decides channel widths and channel selections. To read more about channels and channel widths see “What are Wi-Fi channels and Widths?”.

The initial radio profiles are created by Meter during the Network installation. If you believe you need to create additional profiles, or make adjustments, please don’t hesitate to contact Meter Support to discuss.

Viewing/Adding/Deleting Profiles

Radio profiles can be managed by logging into dashboard.meter.com and clicking on Wireless > Radio profiles.

To add a profile, click on “Add radio profile” to reveal the configuration panel.

Name - The name of the radio profile.

2.4GHz - Disable or enable 2.4 GHz for the radio profile.
5GHz - Disable or enable 5GHz for the radio profile. For 5Ghz a channel width and channel assignment mode can be selected.

Channel assignment - Pick Auto to use the Automatic Channel Selection on the Access Points page. Use the Manual to manually select channels for each access point.

Channel width - In most cases using 20Mhz is recommended unless there are a small amount of access points (less than 10) and only a small amount of outside interference.

After adding the profile, it will populate in the list. Click on the name of the profile to make edits, or delete it using the Actions menu.
