Important Note:

2.1. Alternative placement methods for the Gateway

The Gateway's mounting location can affect wireless connections. For best results, place your Gateway:
• Near an AC power outlet, close to computers you plan to connect with Ethernet cables, and near
locations where you use wireless computers.
• In an elevated location, keeping the number of walls and ceilings between the Gateway and your
wireless computers to a minimum.
• Away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference, such as ceiling fans,
security systems, microwaves, or the base for a cordless phone.
2.1.1. Wall Mount the Gateway
• Drill holes in the wall where you will wall-mount the Gateway. Put wall anchors in the holes.
• Insert screws into the wall anchors, leaving 3/16 in. (0.5 cm) of each screw exposed.
• Attach the mounting plate securely to the Gateway and attach to the wall. The Gateway should be
mounted securely and flush against the wall.
2.1.2. Horizontal Mounting
