Hello everyone! I'm trying to set the best frequency for my home router. Can someone tell me, what should I be looking at here and which frequency is the best to pick? Thanks in advance!
Let's say I would like to use different devices (old and new). I don't want to be limited with this. What about primary and secondary, should I pick only primary frequency or it doesn't matter which one should I pick?Depends on a couple of factors:
- what can your client devices use ? Some might not be able to use the higher frequencies (>5754 or even >5600). SO you may already be limited to using frequencies below 5600 (as most of your environment seems to be doing).
I didn't get this part, could you please give me more details?
- what channel width do you want to use
For 20Mhz, every channel having 0 load should be able to be used.
For 40Mhz, you're already at 5660 since that's that first one with 2 consecutive 20MHz ranges free.
And so on...
You never specified your device but most only have 1 radio per band. So 1 frequency.
