comedy option: see if they have default admin, switch them all to 1 and you to 11 :c00l:

lol i actually did this

one of my neighbors has a weak wpa2 key and the other has no security enabled and their routers have the default admin passwords, so i rearranged all the channels so that nobody in the immediate vicinity is overlapping

if you fire up kismet you often find they're on whatever the default channel is. I was able to move to a different one opposite on the spectrum and get great speeds in my old apartment.

the really annoying thing is when the default is auto, so even if you pick a free channel it just ends up congested when everyone else's routers decide to jump to it because it's less congested.

The iOS and android apps technically work...

you can also just ssh into them and edit a text file after the initial provisioning

i think the big things are that the handshake was changed so you can't run dictionary attacks against captures anymore and even on open networks clients will have individual encryption keys so you can't just hop on some cafe's unsecured network and sniff all the traffic

the global control is under site options and you can change each unit individually in the ap options
