Wireless Performance Considerations
There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.
1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather
than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal
you will lose.
2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the
range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will
minimize the amount of obstructions between them.
3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor
environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through
less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass
or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.
4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the
wireless adapter's site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for
your wireless devices.
5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact
your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF
noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.
If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices
or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide
the necessary coverage depending on the environment.
