-Typically, the 5GHz band has less interference. DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) is a common source of interference for certain channels. The DFS function lets 5GHz WiFi use frequencies reserved for radar. Ironically, DFS was designed to reduce interference. DFS interference varies with equipment location. If you suspect DFS interference, see Wikipedia's [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels|List of WLAN Channels]] for details.+Typically, the 5GHz band has less interference.
