I've noticed after scanning for wireless LANs at home and while traveling, that access points are predominately set to channel 6. I believe this is true because channel 6 is a common default channel, and most people setting up the smaller wireless LANs don't configure the channel setting. The resulting inter-access point interference may cause performance degradation, however, especially when there is lots of activity on at least one of the networks. So, it's a good idea to at least change your home or small office access point channel to 1 or 11.
