As Mike says, no way to exert control over it, like manually setting the channel.
Either they are relying on auto channel selection, or more likely they are assuming the customer’s router will change to another channel.

What does this mean in terms of interference? I assume this is different than what we typically see with coax to the receivers and WiFi or MOCA only to connect to their Internet. Will DirectTV install their own AP? Is this going to be 5 GHz WiFi? Any way to keep it from stepping on our tower-CPE frequency? What about the WiFi router, if we install a 2.4 GHz only router will they leave each other alone? I have a choice of a 5.4 GHz 430 AP or a 5.7 GHz 450 AP to connect them to. -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
