with different channels to see which is the best.
Note If you use multiple WiFi access points (APs), re-
duce interference by selecting different channels
for adjacent APs. NETGEAR recommends a
channel spacing of four channels between adja-
cent APs (for example, use Channels 1 and 5, or
6 and 10).
