| This setting lets you set a gating factor for channel reassignment so that |
|
|
|
|
| the network is not continually disrupted for minimal gains in efficiency. |
|
|
|
|
| For example, if channel interference must be reduced by 75 percent and |
| |
|
|
| the proposed channel assignments will only reduce interference by 30 |
|
|
|
|
| percent, then channels will not be |

|
| Note: Keep in mind that every time the channel planner is triggered, the |
