In the Aironet 1200 AP configuration, there is an option to select a specific channel the AP will use, but there is also an option to set it automatically to "LEAST CONGESTED CHANNEL/FREQUENCY".
With "Least congested Channel/frequency" selected - the device is suppose to scan for a channel that is least busy and selects it for use. This is done everytime during power up and when radio settings are changed.
If there is no restrictions for which channel for me to use and I want to roll out a bunch of these to provide wireless coverage to an area - would there be any disadvantage or problems in using this automatic channel setting for all the APs instead of manually selecting a channel for each one?
Thanks.
