Position Your Modem Router

With the modem router, you can access your network from anywhere within the
wireless network coverage. However, the wireless signal strength and coverage varies
depending on the environment your modem router is in. Obstacles may limit the range
of the wireless signal, for example, concrete structures, thick walls.
For best Wi-Fi performance, and to keep your network secure:
• Do not locate the modem router in a place where it will be exposed to moisture or
excessive heat.
• Keep the product away from strong electromagnetic radiation and devices that emit
electromagnetic waves.
• Place the modem router in a location where it can be connected to the various devices
as well as to a power source.
• Make sure the cables and power cord are safely placed out of the way so they do not
create a tripping hazard.
