Nighthawk X6S AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi Router Model R7900P (Continued) Field Channel Description From the Channel menu, select an individual channel for a 5 GHz-2 SSID. The default channel depends on your selection from the Region menu. Note In some regions, not all channels are available. Do not change the channel unless you experience interference (shown by lost connections or slow data transfers). If this situation occurs, experiment with different channels to see which is the best. Note If you use multiple WiFi access points (APs), reduce interference by selecting different channels for adjacent APs. We recommend a channel spacing of four channels between adjacent APs.
