WLR-5001 Placement

You can place the WLR-5001 on a desk or other flat surface, or you can mount
it on a wall. For optimal performance, place your Wireless Broadband Router
in the center of your home (or your office) in a location that is away from any
potential source of interference, such as a metal wall or microwave oven. This
location must be close to a power connection and your ADSL/Cable modem.
