11-Mbps Wireless Product Placement Guidelines

A few tips to mention that are particularly significant in a radio wave
communications system:
1. Radio waves reflect or refract from buildings, walls, metal furniture, or other
objects. This could result in performance degradation due to the fluctuation of
the received signal.
2. Microwave ovens use the 2.45 GHz frequency band. 11-Mbps wireless devices
also functions in the 2.4 ~ 2.5 GHz band, and therefore shares some of the band
with microwave ovens. This means that when a nearby microwave oven is in
use, it may interfere with 11-Mbps wireless signals, resulting in performance
degradation on the wireless network.

Antenna Alignment

For the best performance, adjust the position of the antenna until an optimal signal
quality results (see Antenna Alignment Utility for details).
