Please explain to me how a router which is broadcasting on Ch 13
(perfectly legally) is bad.

Consider in your answer that one OS sees it, one doesn't. Explain how
this is the "fault" of the router. Bear in mind that the router is
broadcasting correctly on Ch 13 at all stages when you construct your
answer.

The access point is presenting a valid (for my country) point of
contact. Linux can see it but fails to authenticate with the correct
password.
Changing the channel the router is broadcasting on means that Linux
CAN authenticate.
Explain to me how THAT can possibly be the fault of the router.

Seriously, you're a ham radio buff... you should know about this
stuff... Please attempt an explanation.
