In an area with a number of wireless networks present it can be
beneficial not to allow the router to select a channel by itself, but
to look for other networks present in the area, and to select a
channel that is not yet used. This will avoid interference and
improve signal range and clarity for the receiving clients. In a
wireless extender scenario, sending and receiving on the same
channels between routers is essential.
Go to Status->Wireless
Press the ‘Scan’ button
After scanning the environment for other networks the system
will give you all the other networks it found and their channels.
You can now go to Network->Wireless
and select a channel that is not yet used
in your specific environment.
Press the ‘Save Settings’ button
and confirm your settings by pressing
‘Apply Settings’
