Thanx for your work for the community, just did a small donation.

Ok... that channel_check.sh script could work, I would need to try it out if it also correctly handles "auto" control channel settings. But too be honest... I am surprised, so not many people have ever wondered how Automatic Channel Selection Daemon (acsd) is doing its work? I want to know how...

My Asus devices (RT-AX88U & RT-AX82U) are using auto control channel settings, including the DFS channels. I would like to see over a longer period of time (e.g. 2 weeks) which channels are used before the Automatic Channel Selection Daemon (acsd) decides it needs to move to another channel...

Ok, so my interpretation was exactly the opposite. But now my RT-AX82U show this: So it started out on channel 52/80 and now it is on channel 60/80 and it signals channel 116/80 is also available? Why would it mention channel 116 while it is on channel 60?

To clarify: I interpret the line "channel cleared for radar: 112/80" as information from the router saying it applied DFS rules (detected radar) and moved away from channel 112/80. But at the same time the router tells me: I am using currently channel 112/80. So that contradicts in my view and...

Not sure why you share generic Asus FAQ info on DFS channels. I am aware on the working and reasons for DFS channels. I checked your link and I don't find any explanation for my 2 questions.

Here is a wireless log screenshot from my RT-AX88u (running latest Merlin firmware) Here is hte same screenshot from my RT-AX82U (running latest Merlin-gnuton firmware) Both devices have the same following settings: Channel bandwidth = 20/40/80 Mhz Control channel = auto (plus "Auto...

I see this thread is now moved into the Asuswrt-Merlin subforum. Out of curiousity... are the channel selection algorithms manipulated by Merlin or are they part of the closed-sourcecode?

Ok, this makes sense, those design documents are obviously targeted to environments where you control the entire environment. Ok, this is also something I can understand. Thanx for sharing your knowledge on this topic.

This is coming from an Aerohive design document, similar information can be found in documentation from other large Wifi vendors. Wi-Fi cells that are operating on overlapping channels (for example, channels 1 and 3) in close physical proximity to one another can result in interference between...

This has been discussed before. I read some threads but did not find a clear explanation. AFAIK it is common knowledge to use only channel 1/6/11 on the 2.4Ghz band. The reason for this due to 2 types of interference. Adjacent Channel Interference (ACI) & Co-Channel Interference (CCI). AFAIK...
