wi-fi channel
finally scanned the networks i can see in my living room (which is where my router is)
i can see 2 sky routers on channel 1 A bt voyager on channel 5 A sky router and my own voyager on channel 11 and a sky router on channel 6 I also briefly picked up another router on channel 3 can anyone suggest what would be the best channel to shove mine on to get the least amount of interference from the other networks? |
Re: wi-fi channel
looks like 9 would be your best one

Re: wi-fi channel
Obviously you should avoid those channels but other than that the best thing to do is just try it... Plenty of things other than other wireless networks cause interference (like DECT phones, microwaves etc) and they won't show up on your scan. Having said that, 3, or 13 look good. (I'd skip 9, because that is often the worst for interference from microwaves).

According to your list, and this picture:
http://www.draytek.co.uk/support/ima...n_channels.gif It doesn't matter which you pick you're still going to overlap with someone. I knew of a housing estate once where a load of the residents got together and organised themselves so that they knew who was on what channel and so that nobody overlapped with anybody. Maybe you could have a chat with the neighbours? |
