Now this is something more like I have been looking for!
You have 2 APs on channel 11, get one of them to move to channel 6
for better sharing the open range! :)
I actually don't run either of those. ;) I left my AP out of the
output.
Oh, and you are on channel 6.
BTW, there are two ways of doing it. 1/6/11 is the standard documented
way of non-overlapping channel usage that can be arranged rather easily
in a 2D map. 3D can also be done, but it is tricky. 1/4/8/11 has slight
overlap at 1/4 and 8/11 but works well enough and better in dense setups.
Of course some countries allow channels 12 & 13 and thus have more options.
Interesting that xfinity is running open APs.
Yeah, seems that they have started running open AP's on their
subscribers routers a while back...
Perhaps they are running Passpoint 1.0 hotspot. But that causes
challenges for devices without a human interface. And Passpoint 2.0
(that Commcast is rolling out) uses 802.1X clients and you have to do
MAC setup for your devices that you cannot put .1X identities into.
