Set up Your Router via Kasa App
2. 1. Position Your Router
The Smart Home Router is designed to be the “control center” of your home and with
its modern appearance, it can be placed in a standing position or mounted on the wall.
However, keep in mind that your router’s location can affect wireless connections. For
optimal end-user experience, we recommend that you choose a location that is near a
power outlet, and where other devices (wired and wireless) will be able to connect to.
Before installing the router, adhere to all safety precautions including the following:
• Place the router in a centralized area for a maximum wireless coverage
• Keep the router away from metal obstructions, Bluetooth® devices, cordless phones,
transformers, heavy-duty motors, microwave ovens to prevent signal interference or
loss
• Place the router in a well-ventilated location with at least 5 cm (approx. 2 inches) of
clearance on all sides
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, liquids, excessive heat or cold
• Do not make repairs or modifications to the router
• Always update the router to the latest firmware
