Fast 5364 router keeps on defaulting back to wifi channel 1

Hi, I purposefully selected wifi channel 8 for my network as it is the least crowded. However despite changing the setting it reverts back to the default channel 1 which is frustrating to say the least. I  called tech support but they said they could not help and I googled this issue and saw other users were having the same problem.

From what I saw it is a matter of disabling wifi optimisation  ?

Please can my router not revert back to the channel 1 wifi setting.

Many thanks.

@bkhamneian once you've got the optimisation disabled it's best to use channels  1, 6 or 11 as they offer the least overlap and also set the bandwidth to 20 Mhz
