I have a DWL-700AP the channel selection allows setting a number or "Auto" -
which it is currently on.

Does anyone know if "Auto" means use the best/strongest signal or does it mean
"first free channel" ie that does not have another wifi or phone using it.

I recall a posting somewhere that listed signal strengths/channel and some were
better at getting through walls than others in the poster's case.

  
Dave, insofar as the auto channel selection is concerned, you may need to contact DLink to get specifics. I have no idea, and Google just seems to turn up a couple links on forum.dlink.de, but not directly related to the DWL-700AP.

In general, I have found that higher channels tend to give me a bit more punch than lower ones, particularly when I have walls and such in line of site. However, this may just be my experience. It's more a matter of who's using what channels around you and trying to find a channel which does not overlap (1, 6, and 11 are non-overlapping here in the States; in the UK, you should have from 1-13, but still, you're stuck with only three which are completely "overlap-free").

Here's a neat link I jus t dredged up. hopefully, some of the links on the page may come in handy for you (I'll explore them a bit myself, when I have a moment):

Cheers. HTH (Please follow up when you find out more about that auto channel setting.)
