If you had previously ordered a Single Radio device and now wish to activate the 802.11a radio using a
license key, select the 802.11a Radio Active check box AND the Mesh Enabled check box to enable the
802.11a Radio and Mesh devices.
Selecting the 802.11a Radio Active and Mesh Enabled check boxes will
automatically cause the 802.11b/g Radio Active check box to remain
enabled while the Mesh Enabled check box will be deselected.
Only one mesh can be active when setting up 2.4/5.4 and 2.4/5.8 devices.
However, when setting 2.4/4.9 devices, both meshes will be activated.

Open the License Key text file that was provided with your MOTOMESH DUO 2.0 Product CDs. The file
should be located on its own CD. Check with your sales representative for the exact file name.
The file contents will look similar to the graphic below. If there are several devices to add to a (5.x)
802.11a Mesh network, then several license keys may be listed in one License Key file. Note that each
License Key is unique to a MAC Address.
