meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick.
At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position
Access Points and Adapters so that the signal will travel straight through

3. Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - A solid metal door or

Using radio frequency (RF) technology, the DWL-G810 transmits and
receives data over the air, eliminating the need for a wired connection.
