For Educational and Estimation Purposes Only: The WiFi Channel Planning Calculator is provided as a free educational tool to help with preliminary Wi-Fi planning estimates. Results should not be used as the sole basis for professional network deployments.
Professional Consultation Required: For production networks, always consult qualified Wi-Fi professionals and conduct proper site surveys. Actual results may vary significantly based on environmental factors, building materials, interference, and specific requirements.
Calculation Methodology: Calculations are based on industry-standard formulas and best practices from IEEE 802.11 standards, but simplified for general use. Real-world deployments require detailed analysis of specific conditions.
- Channel assignments are based on theoretical optimal distribution and may require site-specific adjustments
- Actual interference levels depend on physical environment and neighboring networks
- Power level recommendations should be validated through on-site RF testing
- Regulatory requirements vary by country and may change over time
- Professional RF survey recommended for mission-critical deployments
