Important:
To avoid interference, assign a unique PAN setting to each wireless network in a
building. Using a unique PAN setting is particularly important if you have PANs on adjacent
floors of a building.
Do not use the same PAN OFFSET on multiple wireless networks in a
building, even if the PANs do not overlap
.
