Tips
Here are a few thngs to keep n mnd, when you nstall a wreless network.
Centralize your router or Access Point
Make sure you place the router/access pont n a centralzed locaton wthn your network for the best performance. Try
to place the router/access pont as hgh as possble n the room, so the sgnal gets dspersed throughout your home.
If you have a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the sgnal to extend the range.
Eliminate Interference
Place home applances such as cordless telephones, mcrowaves, and televsons as far away as possble from the
router/access point. This would significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate
on same frequency.
