BE98 Pro / BE96U Mesh, MLO iPhone 16 pro

I'm curious what the optimal configuration for this is.  I'm trying to use the 96U as a mesh node.  When I turn MLO on, my IOS devices do not roam properly.  They rarely move to the 96U.  Even when they have a 6ghz connection from the 98, they will only pick a 5ghz connection with the 96.  The phones are actually closer to the 96 when it should move over there.  Much of the time, they will not roam to the 96 at all.  If I turn off the MLO stuff, they seem to roam fine and pick the 6ghz.  It seems MLO is broken or not yet working with the latest iOS devices OR I don't know what I'm doing to get it configured.  Any help is appreciated....

When I had MLO working on the non-meshed 98 pro, the icon for the phone device changed to MLO.  This was also true when looking at the network map on the admin site.  If you have a mlo network and sort by network, it will show you.

I do have 3 Wi-Fi 7 compatible systems.  They are the only devices showing the MLO radio.  Perhaps the phone is changing but the Interface is not yet designed to show more than one radio, as Windows does.

Maybe the next firmware update will add that ability.
