5.1 Orienting the Wi-Fi Antennas
If you have ordered LAN wireless (Wi-Fi) functionality, the device is shipped with two pre-
attached, external Wi-Fi antennas. You can orient the antennas in the vertical plane, from 0
to 180 degrees for optimal wireless transmission and reception. For best performance, it is
recommended that the antennas be perpendicular (90 degrees) to the floor. In other words,
orient the antennas straight up.
