Figure 6-2 shows some correct and incorrect methods of aligning the antennas.
The 2.5-dBi antenna is considered omnidirectional. They are designed so the radio
wave will project out from the sides of the antennas. The radio wave patterns will
resemble a doughnut. Because of this pattern, never try to point the ends of the
antennas directly toward one another or directly away from one another.
WRONG! Do not aim the 2.5-dBi
antennas directly at each other.
