N300 Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN2200v3
1. Orient your modem router vertically.
2. Insert the tabs of the stand into the slots on the bottom of your modem router as shown.
3. Place your modem router in a suitable area for installation (near an AC power outlet and
accessible to the Ethernet cables for your wired computers).
Position Your Modem Router
The modem router lets you access your network from virtually anywhere within the operating
range of your wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless
connection can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your modem router.
For example, the thickness and number of walls the wireless signal passes through can limit
the range. For best results, place your modem router:
• Near the center of the area where your computers and other devices operate and
preferably within line of sight to your wireless devices.
• So it is accessible to an
AC power outlet and near Ethernet cables for wired computers.
• In an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings
between the modem router and your other devices to a minimum.
• A
way from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference, such as ceiling
fans, home security systems, microwaves, computers, or the base of a cordless phone or
2.4 GHz cordless phone.
• A
way from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or aluminum studs. Large
expanses of other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks, mirrors, brick, and
concrete can also affect your wireless signal.
• With the antennas in a vertical position to provide the best side-to-side coverage or in a
horizontal position to provide the best up-and-down coverage, as applicable.
