Basic Installation Guidelines
Because the access point is a radio device, it is susceptible to interference that can reduce throughput
and range. Follow these basic guidelines to ensure the best possible performance:
•
Install the access point in an area where metal structures such as shelving units, bookcases, filing
cabinets, and metal gridwork do not block the radio signals to and from the access point.
•
Install the access point away from microwave ovens. Microwave ovens operate on the same
frequency as the access point and can cause signal interference.
