Step 4 Click
20 MHz
or
20/40 MHz
to select the channel bandwidth.
When using the 2.4GHz broadcasting radio you should generally use a channel bandwidth block 20MHz wide.
This is because there are more non-overlapping channels available when using 20MHz (as opposed to 40MHz)
which means there is less likelihood of congestion or clashing channels.You can also use 40MHz on the 2.4GHz
broadcasting radio. However it congests the Wi-FI in the area so if you live in a built up area it probably isn’t
a great idea as it will interfere with other 2.4GHz users. In this case, it is best to select the 20/40 MHz option.
Note
Step 5 Select the primary channel by clicking the Lower or Upper radio button.
You cannot select a primary channel, if you have selected 20 MHz bandwidth in Step 4 or Auto from the channel
drop-down list below.
Note
Step 6
Select an appropriate wireless channel from the drop-down list. You may choose Auto and let the system select the
channel.
If you have selected Lower as your primary channel, you can select the channels 1 to 7. If you have selected Upper , you
can select channels 5 to 11.
