When you click on the wireless network option box, Windows will scan for available networks.
More than one wireless network may appear in the list. These are other wireless networks that
are within range of your network. Your neighbors, for instance, may be within range of your
network. Each wireless network has a channel associated with it. We recommend there be at
least a five-channel difference between your network and those of your neighbors. Having less
than a five-channel difference may result in interference with your connection. By default, the
Wireless-N 4-port Router uses channel 10. If you need to change this channel, you must do so
using the Wireless Setup page of the Zoom Configuration Manager. For instructions on
how to log in to the Zoom Configuration Manager, see page 7. After logging in, select
Wireless from the left-hand menu. On the Wireless page you can select a new channel from
the drop-down menu.
