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 router. For example, the thickness and number of
walls the wireless signal passes through can limit the range. For best results,
place your 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 router and your other devices to a minimum.
• Away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference.
Equipment that might cause interference includes ceiling fans, home
security systems, microwaves, PCs, the base of a cordless phone, or a
2.4-GHz cordless phone.
• Away 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.
