Hello guys,

     We have to install 46 APs (WAP2000) working on a G standard (just 3 channels no overlaping), they will be installed on a hotel, wich is/are the best practice(s) to avoid the minor interference between them due to just we have 3 channels that no overlaping...any help/tip/suggestion/document/website will be very apreciated!

since you're using non overlapping channels they shouldn't interfere with each other. But based on a site survey and/or post install validation survey you can lower the power on a per ap basis so that the are not bleeding through the floors too badly.

Great reponse from Steve on ths one ... Ill add, you should keep 20 dB difference between the same channel. So if you have 2 aps on channel 6, you should see (1) @ 50 the other (1) should be @70 or more.

0.k. I understand. Thanks a lot!

Then I will investigate how many APs we can put on the same Channel taking the consideration of the 20dbs

How many floors are there in this hotel? Be sure and do a survey, but I would stagger them floor to floor.
