What are the recommended Channels and Channel widths for an RBR750 system?
Thinking about tweaking my system but it's been a long time since I've done that so what are the recommendations for 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels and channel widths. Simple home system, nothing elaborate...
Thanks gentlemen. I do not have a WiFi analyzer on my iPhone and I'm not sure how to use one if I did. For 2.4GHz I have it set to Auto. For 5GHz, I believe it's set to 48, which is 36 + 40 + 44 +48(P).
I use the Guest Network (re-named to something else with its own pw) for my IoT devices. Most of which are 2.4GHz only but some use the 5GHz band. I do not use the named IoT network at all.
For 2.4GHz I have it set to Auto. For 5GHz, I believe it's set to 48, which is 36 + 40 + 44 +48(P).
Both of these are reasonable.
Are you seeing any wifi performance issues?
Not really. Just looking to see if I can squeeze a little more performance out of my system. I just updated to the latest firmware for the 750 yesterday. That went well and appears to be stable, so I like to check with those who know than I do about networking to see if there is a better config setup.
Go with whats works best for you, the system and your envrionment. Not all envrionments are the same so will be some differences.
Use what works best.
Also limiting the features being enabled on the system can have some impact. Armor, SPC and Guest Network Or Traffic Meter, I don't use so those don't impact anything for me.
