Channel: (Shows if Random Channel is deselected.) The WiFi channel corresponds to a frequency the router uses to
communicate with other devices. For 2.4 GHz, the range is 1 to 11, and 1, 6, and 11 do not overlap each other. If a
WiMAX modem is attached, a higher number channel will increase the chance the router's WiFi and modem's WiMAX
radios will conflict with each other, which may result in lower throughput. Select a channel from the dropdown list:

1 (2412 MHz)

2 (2417 MHz)

3 (2422 MHz)

4 (2427 MHz)

5 (2432 MHz)

6 (2437 MHz)

7 (2442 MHz)

8 (2447 MHz)

9 (2452 MHz)

10 (2457 MHz)

11 (2462 MHz)
For 5.0 GHz, the ranges are 36 to 64 and 149 to 165. These channels do not interfere with a WiMAX modem. If you
choose to use 5.0 GHz, you should consider switching antennas. The default WiFi antennas are optimized for the
2.4 GHz range.

