The
Wireless > Channel Scan
page provides access to the automated Wi-Fi channel scanning tool. This tool examines the Wi-Fi radio bands (2.4 or
5.0 GHz) in use in the area around the 2247-N8, and automatically assigns the 2247-N8 Wi-Fi radio to use the channel with the least signal interfer-
ence.
Note:
Running the wireless channel scan will temporarily interrupt Wi-Fi service from the 2247-N8 for approximately one minute.

run a wireless channel scan:
Click on the
Continue
button to begin the test. The 2247-N8 checks for the best channel to use for wireless service, and automatically sets the
wireless radio to use that channel number.
Note:
Wireless client computers do not need to specify the channel they are using to connect to the 2247-N8 Wi-Fi network. They will automatically
scan available channels seeking a wireless device broadcasting on the SSID for which they are configured.
