They would either stop connecting altogether, or connect for a minute and then disconnect, or connect at reduced speeds, with lag and jitter.

Is there a way to select and change the channel? With a sniffer, we have found that other channels like 1 or 6 were les busy. In that case, when there is too much traffic, the connection gets closed.īy default, the connection is always established on the 2.4ghz band on the channel 11.
