Hello All,

I am planning on setting up WiFi at home. My neighbor uses WiFi as well but we will have different ISPs. If both of our access points are set to the same channel, will there be a conflict if we surf on the internet at the same time?

Thanks in advance!

From what I can understand, there will not be any conflict. Incidentally, why not you and your neighbor share one connection to the internet, after all that's why wi-fi technology is here for. Just like the idea of sharing a car to work to ease traffic congestion, why not save money and spread wi-fi that way. (give the cost of one connection to charity..)
