12.5.12.4 Set/Define 80211 Channel
⎧ ⎫
SET
⎨ ⎬
80211 CHANNEL
⎩ ⎭
DEFINE
Sets the SCS operating frequency within the 2.4 GHz band allotted to wireless networking. A direct-
sequence 802.11 network on one channel will affect reception on channels up to two numbers away. For
best performance on collocated wireless networks, you should select channels that are at least five channels
apart from each other. For example, three networks could be put on channels 1, 6, and 11 (depending on
your regulatory region). See your PC card documentation for specific information about which channels are
available in your area.
Any configuration changes you make with the above commands will not take place until you reboot the SCS
or issue the Set 80211 Reset command.
