1 TopicChannel Interference 1+5 etc...
Hi All, Wondering if someone can clarify how the dual channel feature works with Netgear Access points, I am currently controlling my AP's through a Wireless Prosafe controller. Now ive noticed that when i select a max throughput on the AP it chooses two channels i.e 11+7, 1+5 - My concern with this is whether or not this is affecting my other AP's and causing adjacent channel congestion. All my AP's have been selected to use channel 1,6,11 to avoid any congestion by overlapping channels, however i sometimes will see my channel move to a (1+5) and i am wondering if this then causes congestion. I am monitoring my channels through inssider. Any explanation/clarification to how this works would be great, as i just want to know if it is an advantage or disadvantage to my particular enviroment.
