Attach to Your Network Using Radio Signals
Install a wireless network adapter in each computer that will be connected 
to the Internet or your local network via radio signals. SMC currently 
offers several wireless network cards, including the 
SMC2602W Wireless 
PCI card and the SMC2632W Wireless PC card.
Rotate both antennas on the back of the Wireless Barricade to the desired 
position. For more effective coverage, position one antenna along the 
vertical axis and the other along the horizontal axis. Try to place the 
Wireless Barricade in a position that is located in the center of 
your 
wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna,
 the better the 
performance. Ensure that the Wireless Barricade’s location provides 
optimal reception throughout your home or office.
