Re: fun with base stations...

What I'm missing is guidance on how to make use of the available
frequency space in the best way possible. Obviously doing everything on
channel 6 as we saw yesterday (but has changed now) isn't the best
approach. Using the non-overlapping channels 1, 6 and 11 is much
better, but from what little I know about radio and encoding schemes I
strongly suspect that controlled use of overlapping channels would lead
to the best results in situations like these meetings.

Testing has shown that using channels 1, 4, 8, and 11 doesn't lead to
performance impact either; the minor overlap is not enough to cause packet
loss.

Should this move to NANOG, perhaps?
