Troubleshooting
Data transfer is sometimes slow .
Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity
and the throughput performance between devices decreases
when the distance between devices increases . Other factors that
will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit)
are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances . As a result,
the typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between
100 to 200 feet . Note also that connection speed may decrease
as you move farther from the wireless router (or access point) .
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we
suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, to five to 10
feet away from the wireless router (or access point) . Please see the
section titled "Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for
Optimal Performance" on page 2 of this User Manual . If issues persist
even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support .

Changing the wireless channel – Depending on local wireless traffic
and interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can
improve performance and reliability . The default channel the router
is shipped with is channel 6 . You may choose from several other
channels depending on your region; see your router's (or access
point's) user manual for instructions on how to choose other channels .
