You keep hearing that you should choose channels 1, 6, and 11, but why? The general idea is that there are three channels in the 2.4 GHz frequency (the aforementioned 1, 6, and 11)
that won’t interfere with anything else when used in separate access points.
At 5 GHz, there are 24 non-overlapping channels to choose from,
so you have more flexibility if you’re not too keen on channel bandwidth. And yes, this setting matters just as much as channel selection, because in a very crowded environment,
you want to keep channel bandwidth lower, like 40 MHz, rather than going all out on 80 MHz or even 160 MHz.
Channel bandwidth – 5 GHz Why should you
If you do this, the likelihood of interference from neighboring access points is much higher – the higher the channel bandwidth, the fewer non-overlapping channels will be available.
Is it possible to use the same channel c level contact list with multiple access points and still have good WiFi?
This is entirely possible. I’ve attached an image that shows this scenario, and as you can see, there is a central AP on channel 11. Its signal is overlapping the signal of the other six APs, three on channel 1 and three on channel 6.
Access points in one channel
There should be no interference and the data transmission should remain clear and stable despite a fairly large number of access a decided restlessness points close to each other. To achieve something like this, you need to adjust the transmission power of each access point so that the signal remains strong in the immediate vicinity of the wireless access point, but not so strong that it interferes with other access points on the same channel.
Keep in mind that the 2.4
GHz signal generally travels further than the 5 GHz signal, so you should set it to the lowest settings available, and yes, some fresh list argue that the 5 GHz frequency should be increased to the maximum, but this will really depend on the amount of interference in the area. This is why it is important to do site research to understand what settings need to be changed. The good news is that both Android and iOS offer these tools for virtually free.
