If you want to use the 5GHz frequency, all wireless client adapters must support 5GHz.
6.3.6.4 Selecting a Wireless Channel
You may need to change the wireless channel on which the UBC1303AB00 operates
when you are in computing, test, and other environments where several wireless access
points may be operating in the 2.4GHz range.
In some cases, you may want to segment your wireless traffic where a group of devices
operates on one channel and another group operates on another channel, and so on. This
is done by configuring the channel on each wireless access point individually (if you have
multiples). If you have control over only one wireless device in an environment where
there may be several, you can change the wireless channel on your device to one that is
not heavily used.
NOTE: To change the wireless broadcast channel, refer to
47.
2.4GHz Channels
The following diagram displays the channels available in the Americas. Each available
channel is 22MHz wide. Since channels overlap, it is best to choose channels that have
the least overlap (typically 1, 6, and 11 in the Americas, and 1, 5, 9, and 13 in Europe).
Overlapping channels can cause wireless network performance issues.

Lower chance of picking up interference
because fewer types of wireless devices
use the 5GHz frequency.
Recommended for applications that require
