Model: OC200  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 5.7.6

The AI WLAN Optimization feature doesn't include 40Mhz as a dropdown selection in the Custom Channel Width configuration. Could this be added in future OC200 firmware update? See my screenshot below:

They changed the 20/40 option to 20/Auto for EAP's a few SDN versions ago now.   There is a good reason for doing this, as the 2.4GHz spectrum is extremely saturated with all sorts of wireless devices.  Bluetooth devices, Wireless mice/keyboards, game controllers, outdoor wireless cameras/doorbells, and mIcrowave ovens are still a big one. Forcing 40MHz channels on 2.4 GHz is not a good Idea anymore and really should be avoided.

 

Go ahead and use the Auto setting to try for 40MHz channels.  But unless you live out on a farm in the middle of knowhere, it's going to drop you down to 20Mhz anyway.
