Wireless Installation Considerations
The D-Link Long Range 802.11ac Wireless Bridge lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually
anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location
of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending
on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless
range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link access point and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall
or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters). Position your devices so that the number of walls
or ceilings is minimized.
