Installation and Configuration of
the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi
Router
Placement of your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router
Just like your mobile phone, the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router
’s location will affect its signal strength to the
Mobile Base Station
(Cell Tower). The data speed achievable from the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router is relative to this signal strength, which is affected
by many environmental factors. When choosing a location to place your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router, please keep in mind that the
4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router will need adequate signal strength in order to provide Internet.
Similarly, the wireless connection between your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router and your WiFi devices will be stronger the closer your
connected wireless devices are to your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router. Your wireless connection and performance will degrade as
the distance between your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router and connected devices increases. This may or may not be directly
noticeable, and is greatly affected by the individual installation environment.
If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might be related to range or obstruction factors,
try moving the
computer to a position between three to five meters from the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router in order to see if distance is the
problem.
Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network
from functioning; if you are concerned that your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may
help.
If you experience difficulties connecting wirelessly between your WiFi Devices and your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router, please try the
following steps:
In multi-storey homes, place the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router on a floor that is as close to the centre of the home as
possible. This may mean placing the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router on an upper floor.
Try not to place the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router near any cordless telephones that operate at the same radio
frequency as the 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router (2.3GHz).
Avoid obstacles and interference
Avoid placing your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router
near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as microwave ovens. Dense
objects that can inhibit wireless communication include:
Refrigerators.
Washers and/or dryers.
Metal cabinets.
Large aquariums.
Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows.
If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such as those listed above are not blocking
the signal’s path (between your devices and the
4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router).
Cordless Phones
If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after considering the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:
Try moving cordless phones away from your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router and your wireless-enabled computers.
Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operates on the 2.3GHz band (check the
manufacturer’s information). If this fixes the problem, your phone may be interfering with the
4G100W 4G LTE WiFi
Router.
If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless
network. For example, change the phone to use wireless channel 1 and set your 4G100W 4G LTE WiFi Router to use
wireless
channel 11. See your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions.
If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.
