The fact that you see other SSID's tells the whole story.
Many people (almost everyone) plugs in their Wireless
access point without reading the manual. Resulting in all
AP being on the "default" frequency set by the
manufacturer...channel 6.
I always tell everyone that has connection issues to
first change the frequency....
I live in a apartment complex and you wouldn't believe
how many AP I can see on channel 6....
For now, I'm the only one on channel 11....and never have
problems connecting...
