1.4 Wireless Performance

The following information will help you utilizing the wireless performance, and operating
coverage of WNAP-7200.

1. Site selection
To avoid interferences, please locate WNAP-7200 and wireless clients away from
transformers, microwave ovens, heavy-duty motors, refrigerators, fluorescent lights, and
other industrial equipments. Keep the number of walls, or ceilings between AP and clients
as few as possible; otherwise the signal strength may be seriously reduced. Place
WNAP-7200 in open space or add additional WNAP-7200 as needed to improve the
coverage.

2. Environmental factors
The wireless network is easily affected by many environmental factors. Every environment
is unique with different obstacles, construction materials, weather, etc. It is hard to
determine the exact operating range of WNAP-7200 in a specific location without testing.
