 setting can be selected to allow the DIR-836L to choose the channel with the least amount of interference.

Indicates the channel setting for the DIR-836L. By default the channel is set to 6. The Channel can be changed to fit the channel setting for an existing wireless 

network or to customize the wireless network. If you enable 

Auto Channel Scan

, this option will be greyed out.

Select the Channel Width:

Auto 20/40

 - This is the default setting. Select if you are using both 802.11n and non-802.11n wireless devices.

20MHz

 - Select if you are not using any 802.11n wireless clients.

Select 

Invisible

 if you do not want the SSID of your wireless network to be broadcasted by the DIR-836L. If Invisible is selected, the SSID of the DIR-836L will 

not be seen by Site Survey utilities so your wireless clients will have to know the SSID of your DIR-836L in order to connect to it.
