WAP Channel Setting
What would be the best setting for and office that has 3 WAP?
Some people say that you should put all the WAP's on the same channel and others say that you should make sure that the channels are 5 MHZ apart, so using channels 1,6 & 11 would work.
What is the correct way?
Thanks

Agree, but whats the correct way to do it?
I was thinking of using 11, 1 & 11..
The WAP's with channel 11 are far apart enough.
What do you think?
Hmm, what is correct (?) I would say that is dependent on what works for you infrastructure and the surrounding interference. The right way is the way you find to be stable given your situation ;)
If the WAPs are far apart and will not interfere, using the same channel is fine. Separating the channels minimizes interference (overlap).

So there is no hard set rule when it comes to setting channels for a WAP?

Very well put!
What I would do is 1,6,11 with same SSID(assuming you want them the same).
