Deco M4(v4) sitting on congested 5Ghz channels
Hi,
Recently I've been experiencing quite intermittent WiFi reception, where during some times the WiFi literally loses connection every 5 seconds whilst the deco app is not showing any issues. So of course I did loads of testing regarding the placement of my APs. In total I have 3 Deco's but currently only 2 in use since the third deco is giving too much interference (due to close distance to each other). So looking at the WiFi channels I've been noticing that my deco network is literally sharing the same channel with some neighboring Deco networks (channel 2 on 2,4 GHz and channel 36 on 5 GHz).
Now I wanted to move these channels in the range of channel 100-140 (since this is allowed over here and the Deco's never even get close to breaking the maximum allowed strength on these channels. After a bit of research, I found out that this is not possible but annoying as hell since multiple WiFi scans I've performed show that not only the channels are congested but also fully used during these downtime moments, resulting in me losing connection during e.g. meetings. Is there in any way possible to still move these channels to some other channel, since rebooting the deco doesn't make the system even move to other channels within the 36-64 range.
Now I am wondering if there is anything I could to optimize my channel usage on the deco system or do I simply have to deal with it.
Here is a screenshot of channel scan I just performed where the yellow marked lines are some foreign deco WiFi network and the underlined WiFi networks are my own.
