    My PC keeps waking up randomly from sleep with WOL enabled in Windows - Router problem?

    I have enbled WOL in Windows so I can wake my PC up remotely. I have also enabled so only a magic packet can wake up my PC, yet it keeps waking up randomly from sleep mode. Can this be caused by my router? RX-AX86U.

    My closest neighbor's router is always switching to my WiFi channel.

    But what technology tell his WiFi auto channel to follow mine? It doesn't make sense.

    My closest neighbor's router is always switching to my WiFi channel.

    Haha, no, I'm not going to bother some old dude and ask him to lend me his computer to fix this.

    My closest neighbor's router is always switching to my WiFi channel.

    I use WiFi Analyzer to pick a free channel. After picking a channel, my neighbor's router switches its channel to the one I chose. It might take a few days for this to happen. The router is very close to my house, so my channel will suffer congestion as a result. Any idea why this is happening...

    Will Wi-Fi 6 solve the issue not having to pick channels?

    I see. But even if WiFi 6E do get crowded at some point, there are still so many more channels to choose from, and the 6Ghz signal is shorter, right? You have to live in a extremely crowded area to run out of available channels on a 6Ghz band, right?

    Will Wi-Fi 6 solve the issue not having to pick channels?

    What if my entire neighborhood had WiFi 6? Let's picture a scenario without WiFi 5 devices. Would we still need to pick channels, or would that solve the issue? I mean, Wifi won't work as it should before we get rid of this problem.

    Will Wi-Fi 6 solve the issue not having to pick channels?

    I play a lot using cloud gaming, so I always have to make sure that I pick a channel without congestion. My neighbors have a tendency to jump to my channel automatically. I'm the only one in my neighborhood with WiFi 6 according to WiFi Analyzer, but I read that widespread WiFi 6 might solve...

    AX86U changing pre-selected channel automatically?

    Will I have to worry about this on the 6 Ghz band when Wifi 6E is here?

    But switching to another DFS channel?

    AX86U changing pre-selected channel automatically?

    I chose 116 as my channel on this router and everything was working well on that channel for a long time. When I checked today, the channel had jumped to 104, and I was unable to reconnect to 116. When I check my router settings it still has 116 selected, but both Windows and WiFi Analyzer tells...

    5Ghz stops working on desktop on my desktop until I reset it in Windows.

    What will this do? It can't be something wrong with my router I guess. When it's dropping on my desktop, it's still up on every other device. When I reconnect it on my desktop it's often slow and unstable, but was fast before dropping. It also won't let me reconnect without troubleshoot and...

    5Ghz stops working on desktop on my desktop until I reset it in Windows.

    Windows. Intel and router drivers are up to date. When I reconnect my PC the speed is often slow, while good on my other wireless devices. Changing the channel often helps getting my desktop Wifi speed back. But I still don't get why the speed is 100% on my other devices before changing channel...

    5Ghz stops working on desktop on my desktop until I reset it in Windows.

    My phone. When my PC disconnect and I reconnect, the speed is usually slow too. If I do a speed test on my phone or some other device, the speed is usually good there. Changing the channel often help. Is this issue caused by using a DFS channel?
