Auto on most routers typically is only choosing when the router reboots.
So.. Power outage/glitch, router boots, looks around, sees no other
traffic ( because all other routers nearby are rebooting because of same
glitch ), settles on first channel. Ditto for all other routers, and
_then_ they start talking... Oops we are all on the same channel...
Repeat ad nausium...

We were talking about this the other day, it seems often that "auto" on
consumer routers tends to pick the noisiest channel for some reason.

Hi, I believe I am seeing a customer's router using the same channel
we are delivering their service on.
Our user's power level stayed constant but SNR dropped 20dB during
their 9 hour download. Neighbors are unaffected.
And it seems like just one device is the house is using that band
because there's traffic earlier in the day that doesn't affect SNR.
Other than providing a router or being a FTTH ISP, how do you handle
avoiding this type of mess?
