Creating your network
Positioning your router
For the best wireless signal transmission between the wireless
router and the network devices connected to it, ensure that you:
•
Place the wireless router in a centralized area for a maximum
wireless coverage for the network devices.
•
Keep the device away from metal obstructions and away from
direct sunlight.
•
Keep the device away from 802.11g or 20MHz only Wi-Fi
devices, 2.4GHz computer peripherals, Bluetooth devices,
cordless phones, transformers, heavy-duty motors, fluorescent
lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators, and other industrial
equipment to prevent signal interference or loss.
•
For the best front-to-rear coverage, place the wireless router in
an upright position.
•
For the best up-and-down coverage, place the wireless router
in an inclined position.
•
Always update to the latest firmware. Visit the ASUS website at
