They do not have a seperate band for backhaul, meaning it's using the same 5Ghz channels for backhaul as it uses for client traffic. I am using Cat5 for backhaul with this setup, you may want to consider a triband setup that has a dedicated backhaul wifi separate from client channels if you can't run Cat5 for backhaul.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, they do not. You have no option to select a backhaul connection, and WiFi 6 isn't showing up when connected, even at short distance.
