No idea if this is the correct section as can't see WAPs anywhere?

Just setting this up & cannot seem to restrict the 2.4GHz WiFi band to a single channel. With 20/40MHz co-existence turned on or off, an adjacent channel is still used. If I select channel 1 & also uses channel 5. If I select channel 6 it also uses 11. Trying to be a good neigbour & not crap all over next door.

 

Firmware 1.0.4.17

 

Edit

Forgt that Netgear can't provide a reliable firmware checker. Firmware now manually updated to 1.0.4.19 & fixed. I'll leave this here in case it helps anyone else.

    There is a control to set it for "up to 145 Mb/s" (== ~20 MHz bandwidth) and "up to 300 Mb/s" (== ~40 MHz bandwidth).
