A few more channel may be available depending on the country. Note how 1, 6, & 11 don't overlap in frequency. The same is true for 2, 7, 12 and 3, 8, 13 but channels 12 and 13 may not be available. In addition, most Wi-Fi access points are pre-configured with channel 1, 6 or 11 which means that other users in your neighbourhood probably use one or more of them. In that case it is easier to get a free channel if you stick to 1/6/11. -- bergek Transporter - Squeezebox 3 - Serener GS-L02 - Via EPIA SP8000 - Ubuntu 6.06 Server ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bergek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7805 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30347 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
