¾ More than one wireless network may appear in the list. These are other wireless
networks that are within range of your network. Your neighbors, for instance, may
be within range of your network. Each wireless network has a channel associated
with it. We recommend there be at least a five-channel difference between your
network and those of your neighbors. Having less than a five-channel difference
may result in interference with your connection. By default, the Wireless-N Router
uses channel 10. If you need to change this channel, you must do so using the
Wireless Setup page of the Zoom Configuration Manager. For instructions on
how to log in to the Zoom Configuration Manager, see page 8. After logging in,
select Wireless from the left-hand menu. On the Wireless page you can select a
new channel from the drop-down menu.
