    Use a cable connection. Or try another WLAN adapter.

    Well, if you have tried all channels to no avail, then you have pretty much exhausted this route. ;)

    If all fails fails and a cable connection is not an option, you may have to change your router (dual-band, 2.4/5.0 GHz) which of course requires a dual-band WLAN adapter.

    I doubt it very much... if you're serious about changing frequencies, you should get a 5 GHz router and WLAN adapter.
