Change the channel for a radio

The available WiFi channels and frequencies depend on the country that you select for
the access point and the radio. The default is Auto, which enables a radio to automatically
select the most suitable channel.
Note: You do not need to change the WiFi channel unless you experience interference
(which is indicated by lost connections).
Note: If you use multiple access points, reduce interference by selecting different
channels for adjacent access points. We recommend a channel spacing of four channels
between adjacent access points (for example, in the 2.4 GHz band, use channels 1 and
5, or 6 and 10).
To change the channel for a radio:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
If your browser does not open the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 37.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified. The user name
and password are case-sensitive.
