Were the networks on 11a included at that moment? You could add multiple entries to wpa_supplicant.conf with bssid also set and order them by priority.

The sysctl only has beacon strength which looks okay and it is some list of scan results but I cannot see why it would not have the 11a networks in the scan results if not forced to 11a. Can you try a bit more without setting it to 11ac and then check wlanstat output or enable wlandebug wlan0 +scan if anything becomes noticable. Then the next question is: if your 11a network(s) show up in the scan results will they be picked automatically, which was unclear above. Lots of health, /bz -- Bjoern A. Zeeb r15:7
