Router channel settings.
After brought this router its 2.4ghz channel settings was Auto and worked fine , no problem . To be mention that there is almost 15 different brands 2.4ghz routers operated continiously by my neighours.So there is huge traffic in 2.4ghz.. But from last 3weeks my routers speed droped suddenly and after severel miniutes its speed was recovered as before.Its speed performance was dropped from 100Mbps to 1.2Mbps . After some research I found that if I change my router 2.4ghz network channel manually at channel 9 or 10 it can operate smpoothly and no problem .
So, I have Four questiones.
NO 1.How can the Auto channel settings work ?
NO 2.Why my router always choose channel 2 in auto mode when there is a nearby router with full signal strength ?
NO 3.Why my router wont choose less congested channel like channel 9 or 10 in auto mode ?
NO 4.Should I change my router 2.4ghz channel settings from auto to manually like channel 9 or 10 or less congested channel ?
PLease help according to the serial .
