Yes, the same problem can occur. The principles are the same. To determine if there is overlap you just take the channel width the network uses, typically 40MHz on 5GHz, the center frequency to determine the actual ranges (half above the center and half below), and then compare to what else is in use.
With 5GHz AC networks you could also use 80MHz or 160MHz channels on some devices. Google is very helpful if you want to know more. With 5GHz the propagation of the signal is less so you typically won't have as much trouble. For small networks where all the devices are in close proximity you could probably randomly pick a channel and just try a channel far away from that one if it doesn't work well enough. My guess is that would work fine for many uses. - Kevin > On Nov 5, 2014, at 12:14 PM, Carl Hoefs <newsli...@autonomy.caltech.edu> > wrote: > > On Jul 22, 2014, at 9:37 AM, Carl Hoefs <newsli...@autonomy.caltech.edu> > wrote: > >> kernel[0]: en1: Supported channels 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 36 40 44 48 52 56 >> 60 64 100 104 108 112 116 120 124 128 132 136 140 149 153 157 161 165 > > Reviving this old thread for just a moment… > > I’ve switched over to the 5GHz channels with great success.
