Tips for positioning your AP:
•
Place your AP so that you can connect it with an Ethernet cable to your router, modem,
or Ethernet outlet and within reach of an AC power outlet.
•
Place the AP near the center of the area where your computers and other devices
operate, and within a line of sight to your WiFi devices.
•
Place the AP in an elevated location, minimizing the number of walls and ceilings
between the AP and your WiFi client devices.
•
Place the AP away from electrical devices like these:
-
Ceiling fans
- Home security systems
- Microwaves
- Computers
-
Base of a cordless phone
- 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz cordless phones
•
Place the AP away from large metal surfaces, large glass surfaces, insulated walls,
and items such as these:
- Solid metal door
- Aluminum studs
- Fish tanks
- Mirrors
- Brick
- Concrete
If other access points are nearby, consider using different radio frequency channels to
reduce interference (see Change the channel for a radio on page 123).
