Position your access point for best
performance
Before you install and mount your access point as described in the installation guide,
consider how you can position the access point for best performance.
The access point lets you access your network anywhere within the operating range of
your WiFi network. However, the operating distance or range of your WiFi connection
can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your access point. For
example, the thickness and number of walls the WiFi signal passes through can limit
the range.
Additionally, other WiFi devices in and around your office, home, yard, or campus, might
affect your access point’s signal. WiFi devices can be other access point, routers,
repeaters, WiFi range extenders, and any other devices that emit WiFi signals for network
access.
Position your access point according to the following guidelines:
•
Place your access point near the center of the area where your computers and other
devices operate.
A line of sight between the access point and your WiFi devices is not required for
good performance.
•
For model WAX610 only, if you use a power adapter, make sure that the access point
is within reach of an AC power outlet.
•
Place the access point in an elevated location, minimizing the number walls and
ceilings between the access point and your other devices.
•
For model WAX610 only, place the access point away from electrical devices such
as these:
-
Ceiling fans
- Home security systems
- Microwaves
- Computers
-
Bases of cordless phones
- 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz cordless phones
•
Place the access point away from large metal surfaces, large glass surfaces, insulated
walls, and items such as these:
- Solid metal doors
