Login web-based management interface of the wireless powerline extender (click here). Go to Wireless > Settings page, change Channel Width 2.4GHz→40MHz, 5GHz→80Mhz.

Step 2

The problem occurs on 5GHz or 2.4GHz? If end-devices support 5GHz as well, connect to 5GHz to check if it’s better or not.

For 2.4GHz, change the Channel (channels 1, 6 and 11 are generally best, but any channel can be used, please try a few more channels). A wireless channel determines which operating frequency will be in use. It is not necessary to change the channel unless you’re noticing interference problems with nearby wireless networks.
