So, is a channel change on router enough? I had freeze problems again
when the channel is set to 6 instead of 11 in the router settings.

Also, do i also have to set the channel set 6 for Broadcom wi-fi
adapter to be sure i'm on channel 6? I don't know how to determine
which channel i'm running wi-fi on.
