Thanks for the tip - I'll give that a shot next time I'm in this situation. During my various throw-away tests with formatting, I did try CHKDSK /F when formatted as NTFS via Windows. Format went fine - but CHKDSK took 48+ hours, so I dont think I'm gonna trust the device any longer. -- Espi

Most people don't use the 5 GHz band as it does not penetrate walls very well, the distance it is usable is shorter, and almost any thing can interfere but like I said it does still have a place in the sphere of things. Jon Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2013 16:44:34 -0800 Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] wifi

I found a simplistic breakdown of what I was referring to on MetaGeek's website - complete with images. If you cant find open channels, then you want to co-channel (stack). Adjacent-channeling is actually the worst selection. http://www.metageek.net/support/adjacent-channel-congestion/ -- Espi

The previous link to metageek that I recently sent should explain it all, and with pictures. But I still recommend going coordinating with your neighbors so you are all on the same page and working together to have the least complications between you both - instead of *fighting a secret war*. You
