Anyway even if you use it you may have problems with your devices connecting to that channel. I have access to channel 14 on my router but I've never used it. You should be find using on the main three channel 1,6, and 11. Use the channel thats the strongest.

Thanks hn333. I'm fine with channel 11. I just thought that since WiFi Analyzer said 14 was better I would try it. I wasn't aware the higher channels were illegal. Channel 11 is the strongest of 1, 6 and 11. So I'll just keep that.
