Tips

Here are a few things to keep in mind, when you install a wireless network.
Centralize your router or access point
Make sure you place the router/access point in a centralized location within your network for the best performance. Try to place the
router/access point as high as possible in the room, so the signal gets dispersed throughout your home. If you have a two-story home, you may
need a repeater to boost the signal to extend the range.
Eliminate Interference
Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible from the router/access point. This
would significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.
Security
Don't let your next-door neighbours or intruders connect to your wireless network. Encrypt your wireless network by turning on the WPA or
WEP security feature on the router. Refer to the product manual for detail information on how to set it up.
