9Standards-Based TechnologyBased on the IEEE 802.11g standard, the DP-G310 is interoperable with existingcompatible 2.4GHz wireless technology with data transfer speeds of up to 54Mbps*when used with other D-Link AirPlus G devices.Wireless Basics (cont.)Installation ConsiderationsThe D-Link AirPlus G DP-G310 lets you print through your network, using a wirelessconnection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind,however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objectsthat the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical rangesvary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency)noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to followthese basic guidelines:Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DP-G310 and othernetwork devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Linkwireless product’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devicesso that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.2.Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick(.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick.At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters). Position devices so thatthe signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle)for better reception.3.Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electricaldevices or appliances that generate extreme RF noise.5.Building materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door oraluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wirelessdevices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passesthrough drywall or open doorways and not other materials.4.Keep the antenna of the DP-G310 in an upright position.1.* Maximum wireless signal rate based on IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications. Actual data throughput willvary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materialsand construction, and network overhead lower actual data throughput rate.
