Direct the external antenna to allow optimization of the wireless link. If for example
the antenna is erect, wireless links in the horizontal plane are favoured. Please note
that the antenna characteristics are influenced by the environment, that is by
reflections of the radio signal against walls or ceilings. It is advisable to use the
received signal strength as indicated by the wireless client manager to optimize the
antenna position for the link to a given client.
Concrete walls weaken the radio signal and thus affect the connection.
