I can give it a go. There are quite a large number of networks at BB's
location running Ch11 (including BB's own internal wireless network).

Will Ch13 be far enough away from Ch11 to avoid interference?

My own understanding to minimise interference was to use on a
non-overlapping channel (1, 6 or 11).. not taking SuperG into
consideration.

However, BT Voyager in NetStumbler is reporting Ch8, but very strong
signal. So, either this is correct, or this is SuperG misreporting?

The ideal solution would be to find BT Voyager neighbour and see if we can
change his/her channel to a non-overlapping.

I am worried, because BT Voyager's signal strength seems stronger in the
road than our Linksys boxes with external antennas. I can't for one minute
believe they are using anything other than the standard antennas.
