New Beta - MR 32.1.4 is out

[RaphaelL]

Important note

• MR45/55 APs are not supported on MR 32.x.x and will instead upgrade to the backup version (MR 31.1.8)* if they are in networks configured for MR 32.x.x versions, and thus, new features will not be available.

Bug fixes

• General stability, performance, and experience improvements
• APs intermittently stop sending beacons & responding to clients on 5GHz (Wi-Fi 6e)
• APs not responding to probe/auth requests from clients on 2.4 & 5GHz (Wi-Fi 6, 6e)
• Multi/Broadcast packets (RA/DHCP) not forwarded by APs (Wi-Fi 7)
• Mesh not forming 6GHz 160MHz (Wi-Fi 6e)

*was corrected moments ago

Any idea why MR45/55 have a backup version different than the other ? Shouldn't it be MR 31.1.8.1 ?

[meraki-chris]

it will be r31-1-8 for MR45/55 fallback

Hmm, so not even the latest 31.1 firmware...

I wanted to post this to hopefully save others time troubleshooting.

I'm using CW9172 Wifi7 APs at home. On the MR 31.1.x release I had an issue where my Sonos Sub (v3) would constantly fail to connect to the wifi. Event log showed lots of 'dhcp problem' messages. This is now fixed in MR 32.1.4. My Sonos Arc could connect to the wireless on both releases.

I've identified an issue with this release. I have an airplay server (Sonos) and client (iphone/mac). When these are connected to the same AP (CW9172) and SSID (and VLAN), I do not see the airplay server via either the built iPhoneOS/MacOS software or the Flame app (bonjour browser) on the iPhone. When the airplay server is connected via the wired network (still on the same VLAN), I see the server and can airplay to it. After 3 days of troubleshooting, I haven't found anything obvious using intelligent capture. This setup worked fine on my previous MR33 APs. Appreciate if you could look into this, as I strongly believe it is an issue with this software release.

I hate that but the changelog are quite different :

• LSP speed test deprecated

New feature

• The Per SSID toggle for 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) feature allows WiFi 7 access points to operate some SSIDs in 802.11ax mode while others operate in 802.11be mode. This is also called "ax/be mixed mode", "per-SSID 11be."
