5ghz channel keeps changing

[Robbo0410]

Does anyone know why my 5ghz channel keeps changing from 36 to 44, it seems to be the Sky boxes that are changing it, it's effectively halfing my bandwidth, both boxes are wireless, I can't have the main box wired as it was causing my router to constantly reset itself in a loop at least a few times a day

@Robbo0410 by default the Sky hubs use a 80MHz bandwidth different devices describe thst as ch36 80MHz which is lowest channel of the 16 it covers up to ch52 others would call that  ch44 80MHz which is the centre of the range.

So it's normal for the hub to just change to channel 44 40mhz, isn't that halfing my bandwidth though? I have 2.4 and 5ghz enabled on main box and mini box, like I said I can't have the main box wired cause it was causing router resets which is apparently a common problem with Sky boxes being connected via ethernet, had no issues for around a fortnight after disconnecting the wire and going wireless with both boxes, but now the channel changing is random

@Chrisee another update, the 5ghz keeps disabling as you can see from the screenshot, but the Sky boxes are currently connected on 5ghz I have 2.4 disabled on those, and the channel is still changing and halfing my bandwidth, would you be able to escalate this if possible so I could chat to someone
