Changing the Wireless Channel
There are a number of operating channels you can choose from. In the United
States, there are 11 channels. In the United Kingdom and most of Europe, there
are 13 channels. In a small number of other countries, there are other channel
requirements. Your Router is configured to operate on the proper channels for
the country you reside in. The default channel is 11. The channel can be
changed if needed. If there are other wireless networks operating in your area,
your network should be set to operate on a channel that is different than the
other wireless networks. For best performance, use a channel that is at least five
channels away from the other wireless network. For instance, if another network
is operating on channel 11, then set your network to channel 6 or below. To
change the channel, select the channel from the drop-down list. Click “Apply
Changes”. The change is immediate.
