8.0 Frequently asked questions
Q
: Can I increase the range of my wireless network adapter?
A
:
For wireless devices the rule is that at a lower speed a greater distance can be
bridged. By default your wireless card is set to a higher speed. If the distance
between your wireless card and your router is rather large, you might want to
consider setting the wireless card to a lower speed of 54 Mbps (802.11G) or 11
Mbps (802.11B). The lower speed allows the signal to travel a greater distance
but also limits the maximum speed of your connection. Follow these steps:
1.
Open the Ralink utility
2.
Click the ‘Advanced’ button.
3.
Select ‘802.11 B/G’ or “802.11 B’.
4.
Click ‘Apply’ to save the settings.
Q:
The EM4554 is a wireless N receiver. Can I use this adapter on a wireless router
which only supports the wireless ‘B’ or ‘G’ standards?
A:
The EM4554 is specially designed for use with a 300 N router. However, the
EM4554 will work without any problems when using the older ‘B’ or ‘G’ standards.
