lol it's not a must.. as i mention early, that's the best practice... as in real life there are some ppl who dont really understand the concept on channel will just pick their lucky number, i bet some will even choose channl 13. I did give an example of ppl using external IP as their Internal IP.

what i wanna bring out is that, 1,6,11 will be best channel if everyone follow the standard. as for ur example, as for standard i will go for channel 11 and not 9.

and if everyone follow the standard of 1,6,11, then by any meant we will only interfere with only 1 channel, either it's 1 or 6 or 11. but practically this is hard to archieve as some ppl will even go and choose automatic.

So if we live in a codo area, and there are 45 wireless networks in total, we should go like this:

channel 1: 15
channel 6: 15
channel 11: 15

Is the above the optimal/standard thing to do in your opinion? The 15 channels broadcasting at the exact same frequency, they will not interfere ?
Yes sure, the first 15 will not touch the second 15, but what about the 15 themselves!!
Bro they will go dancing like bowling pins after the ball hit them!

i dont think it will be an issue. Do think we are able to see all the 45 AP inside our unit? I don't think each of the resident will buy a big antenna which will blast their wireless up to 5km.. the most the resident will is around 4-5 AP if they are sitting inside their block. then just filter out all the channel and choose less used or empty channel...

we are talking about residential, so i don't see any problem with it


if commercial site, yes choosing 1,6,11 won't be practical as everyone wanna blast the wireless to the max.. and this where wireless booster come in, and different type of frenquency coming in..

hope i make this clear...

If and only if there's one wireless device in your area, it never interfere. Or you can make sure all ur neighbours don't broadcast at same channel. It's like FM Radio. If both radio station broadcasting at same frequency, the receiver will only be receiving information of the stronger signal. This works about the same in WiFi but there's another factor here, that's the encryption of information of each AP. Hahaha... Cincai bluff bluff bluff. I think so called standard... Should be just a Norm. Not a must! For me, it should be choosing channel based on surrounding wifi. Don't use channels used by your neighbours. This is what I did...

We are just chatting in the middle of the night nothing better to do
