EAP772-Outdoor issue with AFC / 6Ghz

Hi,
I recently bought an EAP772-Outdoor (US) v1.0 AP from my local distributor in Singapore. While setting up, I realized there is no way to enable 6Ghz wifi.
By default, AFC is enabled, but I get the following error on the 6ghz radio page (6 GHz Band Unavailable, Due to regulatory requirements, the 6 GHz band is unavailable since your AFC location cannot be obtained).
I tried turning of AFC to see whether 6ghz can be enabled without AFC, but it did not work too
Can someone provide me some guidance on how I can make 6ghz work on this AP?
Thank you!

I upgraded to the above firmware (1.3.1) and I am in the US as well and I am getting the same error as before.

@Rahzadan - Let's hope they fix this soon. For now i guess we got to live with 5Ghz ):

For reference, this is what I'm getting in Canada on 1.3.1 Build 20250715, despite AFC being enabled:
Hopefully it gets fixed soon.

Hi @Rahzadan
In Canada, it should work.
Please kindly take a screenshot of the the firmware page of your EAP772-outdoor.
Can you see the 6Ghz SSID on your 6G wireless clients?

Hi @Rahzadan
Please also go to Status page to check the AFC status, and also try with Refresh AFC status:
If still the same, please share a copy of this page with us. Thanks.

Hi @Rahzadan
Did you have time to check the AFC status today? We are very concerned about this. Looking forward to your reply.

Hi @Rahzadan
The AFC failure may occur under the following circumstances:
- The EAP cannot access the external network
- No SSID is configured for both 2G & 5G frequency bands
- The EAP is installed outdoors with no other SSID broadcasts nearby
Please verify whether any of these conditions apply to your setup.
What's more, before update to 1.3.1 Build 20250715, was the AFC working correctly?

No matter how many times I click "Refresh AFC", it is always Failed. I guarantee it is enabled (see my previous above screenshots). I cannot see or use any 6Ghz bands.
Here is the firmware page. I am on 1.3.1 Build 20250715.
The AFC failure may occur under the following circumstances:
- The EAP cannot access the external network - It definitely can. My 5G and 2.4G clients are able to access the AP and have internet access.
- No SSID is configured for both 2G & 5G frequency bands - There definitely is. 5G and 2.4G clients are connected and working. See here:
- The EAP is installed outdoors with no other SSID broadcasts nearby - There are many other neighboring SSID's nearby.
Please verify whether any of these conditions apply to your setup.
What's more, before update to 1.3.1 Build 20250715, was the AFC working correctly? - I have not tried any other firmware versions, as I updated to this as soon as I recieved the unit. Is there a specific version you recommend?
