WiFi setup question.

2022-01-03 11:18:21

I have a WiFi network based on the Archer AX5400 with two Mesh devices (a TL-WPA8631P and an RE205.)

The network seems to work fine, however I have introduced a new device recently which is an amateur radio internet gateway (SharkRF OpenSpot 3 - http://www.sharkrf.com).

I'm having real problems getting this to work well - it keeps dropping packets. The manufacturers have advised me to use 2.4Ghz channels 1, 6 or 11, however the router seems only to be set to Auto and using channel 4.

Is there a way for me to force the 2.4Ghz Wifi band to use one of the above channels (1,6 or 11)?

@Perennial

Yes, there is. For this to be possible you should disable Smart Connect feature.

Only then you'll have the oportunity to select a particular channel for 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands.
