Yes, the true non overlappable channels are 1 6 and 11, but then again, you can eke out some throughput by going to a less congested channel.
The thing is that most routers default to 1. So I changed mine to 6 and got great benefits. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of maccrawj Sent: Sunday, May 16, 2010 1:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [H] Yet another stumbler Good luck on that, on 2.4ghz there are only 1, 6, 11 that don't overlap and then factor in the 40mhz vs. 20mhz issue. 1 & 11 are nearly useless since they don't provide enough spectrum for 20mhz much less 40mhz. After years of using Netstumbler to survey, I now use InSSIDer.
