In the scenario of 802.11n 2.4GHz routers, and assuming a very simplified example of only channels 6 and 11:
- Us in Building A: router on channel 6
-- next door --
- Building B: router on channel 6
-- far away --
- Building C: router on channel 11
For best performance for us working in Building A, will the routers share the channel 6 frequency proactively, and therefore less likely to have collisions,
OR
Is it better to pick channel 11 as the router using that is far away and less likely to interfere?
Essentially do wireless routers engage in a primitive form of TDMA (time-division multiple access) or similar?
