Setting Up Your Wireless AP Router
1.
Before you begin, choose the best location for your Wireless AP Router. For
optimal reception and performance, place the Wireless AP Router in the center
of your wireless LAN, on a flat horizontal surface, and where there is minimum
obstruction between wireless clients and the Wireless AP Router.
2.
Position the antenna such that it points up, and attach the optional stand if
you want to place your Wireless AP Router upright.
