RS series routers auto 5 Ghz band channel selection algorithm tuning
The auto 5 Ghz wifi band selection algorithm picks up DFS channels in a crowded wifi neighborhood. The DFS channels have lower transmit power then the non DFS channels in the 5 Ghz band. This impacts the range and perfomance of the router due to the lowered signal strength.
Please tune the auto channel selection algorithm in the 5 Ghz band to select a non DFS least congested channel for better range, performance and compatibility with older clients.
