1.6 Installation Considerations
z Beware of the walls and ceilings. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your
wireless cover range form 3-90 feet. Properly position your Access
Points, Residential Gateways, and computers so that the number of
walls or ceilings residing between Access Points and clients is
minimized.
z Building materials make a difference – A solid metal door or aluminum
studs may have a negative effect on signal coverage range. Try to
properly position Access Points and computers with wireless adapters
so that there would be less obstacles existing between them.
z Keep your wireless LAN devices away from microwaves, cordless
phones and child incubators. It is likely that the latter will cause
interferences to the operation of your wireless LAN devices.
