How to change channel in Smart Wizard

Hi

 

Im new to this community and this is my first question

 

I have a netgear  WNA3100 wifi adapter and the last weeks my wireless network has been very unstable. Googled it found out that change channel could be a solution

 

Have downloaded the inSSIDer, but its not possible to change channel in that program

 

How can I change channel in smart wizard which is the WNA3100 utility?

 

 

Thanks

  • The Wi-Fi channel used by the WNA3100 is determined by the Wi-Fi router or Access point that it's connected to. You would need to log into the router or Access point and change the channel, there.

      Didnt knew how to log in to a router, but googled it and logged in. Now I have access to the router, and I hope that choosing channel 11 instead of auto will help, to get the wifi more stable

       

      Just adding the the IP-adress in the andress bar on the browser, then the log in page for the router will appear 

       

      Thanks

      I have four WN2500RPs.  Got a way to put them all on a unique channel from the same router... would be a lot more versatile if it could be changed the other way around.
