FRITZ!Box 3272 85
WLAN Autochannel
With the WLAN Autochannel function, the FRITZ!Box automat-
ically searches for the channel subject to the least interfer-
ence. This process takes into consideration interference from
radio networks in the vicinity (wireless access points) and po-
tential sources of interference (for instance video bridges, ba-
by monitors, microwave ovens). Should problems with inter-
ference persist despite this function, try to identify the source
of interference and switch it off manually.
