Hey Ryan, When you were first discussing this sort of issue before I am not sure if you had been trying to have both of your routers assign dhcp (ip addresses) to the various network computers etc. I had that problem once and it was pointed out that only one router should be doing that. Not sure if it had any relevance to your issue, but thought I would mention it. Otherwise most of this is beyond my scope a bit.

It would be nice to coordinate with the neighbors but then maybe their position puts their new channel that is good for me is now bad for them or bad for their neighbors further down so if I am gently forcing them I would feel obligated to travel down the neighborhood doing channel planning. This is not something I am too keen on doing especially given that my actual wlan performance is generally fine, particularly given that I mostly use 5ghz which is mostly quiet in my immediate vicinity. I can only see one neighbor also using 5ghz so I chose a distant channel from theirs, assuming auto channel selection is not turned on in their ap; for the last several months I've never seen them change channels. > > > > > > -------------- next part -------------- > An HTML attachment was scrubbed... > URL: <http://mailman.mn-linux.org/pipermail/tclug-list/attachments/20150202/be83f4a1/attachment-0001.html> > > ------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota > tclug-list at mn-linux.org > http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list > > End of tclug-list Digest, Vol 122, Issue 17 > *******************************************
