I am a pretty technical dude and bringing a nuclear weapon to a gun fight is my style too, if the problem persists and i spent more time trying to solve something with inadequate measures (lol). However, as technical people, we need to solve problems ourselves, hence me being here in the first...

I came across this article as i was searching generally about DFS to see how it is and how it works. To be honest it sounds a little bit like the problem i am in right now, which is a crappy router, trying to channel hop, to keep the wifi network on a 'least used' channel (which does not happen...

Excellent replies all, thanks so much. I have indeed thought about checking for DFS support on devices i am using and also using a device to scan for DFS usage and how free they are.

Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation - much appreciated. My concern with congested 2.4 and 5g though will not go away unless i use the DFS option. It looks like this router does not allow for such a setup. I also looked at the merlin FW but obviously an FW cannot usually provide something...
