Both 2.4 and 5 are massively overcrowded with not enough channels, do you guys live in sparsely populated areas?
Right now for me.
Channel 1 8 visible AP's
Channel 6 11 visible AP's
Channel 11 6 Visible AP's - I am on here
5ghz seemingly only usable in its lowest channels due to firetv not supporting anything above channel 64. I cant use channels 52-64 I get booted off and anything over 64 doesnt work on firetv.
I assume everyone else also gets booted off in my area as I see no AP's on 52-64 but 12 AP's on 36-48.
I have just tried the Xbox360 again, it now automatically detects my 2.4, however I had to rescan 6 times, it barely sees any 2.4 AP's at all, however it still cannot communicate, DHCP log is full of discover and responses been sent, setting manual static ip it just wont communicate.
My AP is OpenWRT based, so I suspect its probably this problem.
https://forum.openwrt.org/t/xbox-360-cant-get-a-valid-ip/77682Xbox360 is of course very old and obsolete now, I only tried to get it online to upload my saves to the cloud, for use on my Xbox Series S. So I will attach an ethernet cable.
But is a shame so many new devices restrict to very limited usable channels. I think I might start using my second AP again just for firetv so I can get my laptop and phones back on the cleaner faster noise free higher 5ghz channels.
