Wireless network is easy to setup, but if you’re installing it for the rst time it could be quite a task not knowing
where to start. That’s why we’ve put together a few setup steps and tips to help you through the process of
setting up a wireless network.
Tips
Here are a few things to keep in mind, when you install a wireless network.
Centralize your router or Access Point
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.
Eliminate Interference
Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible
from the router/access point. This would signicantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause
since they operate on same frequency.
