Overlapping channels
Note
This tab is available only in access point mode.
For optimum data throughput, it is important that the set wireless channel is not used by
other access points. In the 2.4 GHz band (802.11b or 802.11g), there is overlapping of the
channels so that an access point occupies not only the set channel but also the two or three
adjacent channels. You should therefore make sure that there is adequate channel spacing
to neighboring access points.
This page shows all access points that are visible on the set or adjacent channels (at 2.4
GHz). If entries exist here, the maximum data throughput of the access point and the
availability of the communication link to the access point is potentially impaired.
