Gateway Installation
The Gateway should be installed indoors in an
easy-to-reach location. Registration requires
that you press the gray button on the
Gateway. It can be mounted securely to the
wall with the included mounting plate and
drywall anchors.
If you require a longer LAN cable to mount the
Gateway in a desired location, any standard
Category 5 network cable will work, but a crossover cable may not work.
Crossover cables designed to connect two computers without networking
hardware may not work with your Gateway.

NOTE: Network cables usually have length limitations. The same length
limitations will apply that apply to computers on your home network.
The Gateway sends weather forecasts to your Wireless Display over a maximum
330 ft. range. Walls and other obstructions between the Gateway and Wireless
Display will affect the range. The Wireless Signal Icon will indicate the signal
strength to let you know if your Gateway and Wireless Display are within range.
