You can set channel 40 if you like. Depend on if you have any wifi nieghbors using these channels as well. Use a wifi scanning app on a mobile pad to see whos near by.

    First up, thanks for clarifying.  If I may, what is the relevance of this value in the browser interface ( which is  preloaded such as 36,40,44,48)

     

    However, in the Orbi App, it is suggesting to choose channels and does not sit well with the values which are preloaded in WebInterface.  May be Iam mixing two different things. Iam sure, someone can help to sort this out, 

     

    See the picture from Orbi App's recommendation

      Can you use the Choose File button to attach the capture of the app picture? We have to wait normally for a forum moderator to approve inline pictures.
