Tips
Here are a few things to keep in mind when you are installing a wireless network.
Make sure you place the router/access point in a centralized location within your network for the best performance. Try to
place the router/access point as high as possible in the room, so the signal gets dispersed throughout your home. If you have
a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the signal to extend the range.
Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible from the router/access
point. This can significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.
Don’t let neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by turning on the WPA or WEP
security feature on the router. Refer to the relevant section in this manual detailed information on how to set it up.
