Cannot change wifi channel in Panoramic gateway.
I am logged in to 192.168.0.1 as admin, I choose the network and press Edit which takes me to the page where the settings are but almost everything is greyed out - clicking does not have an effect.There is a Save Settings button at bottom of page but I can't change anything on the page.
My box is set for Automatic channel setting and channel 11 at this time - I cannot change Automatic to Manual either.
There is another network nearby that uses channel 11 and has a higher signal strength than my wifi network! I get a lot of pauses when using the Internet from my computer over WIFI and so I want to change the channel to help isolate the problem.
I am using the WIFI Analyzer android app to see all the networks in the area and the other network's SSID is HIDDEN.

Obvious question: Do you need to rent a Panoramic?

Their Panoramic Wifi modem *** out loud. I had one and had nothing but problems, 3 replacements and still had the same problem. Finally downgraded to the next lowest model that supported Gigablast (What a joke that is) and got my own router. Of course if you contact support, they always blame your router and tell you to fix it. So be prepared for a fight with them.

I have noticed the same issue lately and I am not happy about it. My 2.4 keeps at Channel 1 where everyone and their mother is on. I have the new Panoramic Wifi gateway. I just called Cox and got that the new modems are not allowing us to change them. I am not happy about that. I also found something on the web that said they are working to make our networks better, that is a lie I have had nothing but issues since not being able to change my channels in the gateway. I decided to come to the forum to see if anyone else is having issues.
