The invention discloses a wireless device and a channel selection method thereof, comprising: Step S1, a channel selection device launches into an operating state; Step S2, the channel selection device scans adjacent access devices and sends a state query request; Step S3, the channel selection device judges whether any adjacent access device is in the operating state by feedback information for the state query request; if the result shows “No”, turning to Step S5; Step S4, the channel selection device switches into a waiting state, and returning to Step S2 after a predefined first delay; and Step S5, the channel selection device maintains in the operating state, and executes an automatic channel selection, then exits. The problem of channel selection by a plurality of neighboring wireless devices is solved; a channel congestion problem is relieved; the connection quality of the wireless network is improved; and the user experience is upgraded.
