Answer | In some cases, wireless interference may occur when nearby wireless networks are broadcast on the same channel as the W61.  Changing the Wi-Fi channel in the W61 may reduce wireless interference.  The W61 broadcasts the Wi-Fi network on the 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz bands. When restarting the W61 it selects the best or least congested Wi-Fi channel.  Before selecting the Wi-Fi network, check the Wi-Fi client experiencing interference to identify the Wi-Fi network being used by the device to change the channel. The Wi-Fi client’s Internet connection will be interrupted when changing the Wi-Fi channel. Changing the W-Fi Channel
