11D-Link DAP-3662 User ManualSection 2 - InstallationThe D-Link wireless device lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of yourwireless network. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals mustpass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in yourhome or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link device and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceilingcan reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings isminimized.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 bealmost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the signal willtravel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.3. Building materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to positionaccess points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objectssuch as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (fish tanks), mirrors, file cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade yourwireless signal.4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), yourwireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from yourwireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.Installation ConsiderationsInstallation |
