If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless
network. For example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your NF18ACV to channel 11. See your phone’s user
manual for detailed instructions.
If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 1800MHz cordless phone.
Choosing the “quietest” channel for your wireless network
In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as apartment buildings or office complexes, there may be
wireless networks nearby that can conflict with your wireless network. Your wireless adapter may include a utility to assist in
scanning for the least congested network, otherwise you may be able to find another piece of software that can be used.
These tools display a graphical representation of the wireless networks in range and the channels on which they are
operating. Try to find a channel which is not as busy and does not overlap with another one. Channels 1, 6 and 11 are the
only channels on 2.4GHz which do not overlap with one another and you should ideally choose one of these channels.
Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the clearest connection and avoid interference
from neighbouring cordless phones or other wireless devices.
