Abstract

An electronic apparatus, method, and computer-readable medium implement smart channel selection to track client devices that connect with a LAN over time, store a historical number of client devices that connect with the LAN and a channel number on which the apparatus operated each connection with the client devices, and determine whether a number of probes/association requests on a current channel in the 5 GHz band on which the apparatus is operating is less than a predefined threshold value. When the number of probes/association requests on the current channel in the 5 GHz band on which the apparatus is operating is less than a predefined threshold value, smart channel selection is performed to select a new channel in the 5 GHz band, and the 5 GHz SSID of the apparatus is broadcasted on the new channel.
