A question about 5GHz wireless channel setting
Admitedly I haven't paid much attention to the wireless settings in the management console, but I am aware my RBR50 is using channel 48. When troubleshooting a different issue, I used wifi analyzer ...
Good idea, but that wasn't it. Unfortunately the Amazon tablet isn't able to see the newer intermediiate channels and it would have made more sense for NG to choose one of those less used channels for backhauling traffic I'll see if I can get my hands on a better tool to check.
At least moving the primary traffic to channel 44 is good enough to have a clean signal there. As for what else is pushing a signal, I suspect the Arris router is still transmitting even though the radios are supposedly turned off and the power output lowered.
- Thank you. The backhaul channels must be the ones I see in the 149+ range. No SSID.
The provided links are awesome.
