Positioning Your RSGu3500 for Optimal Wireless Performance
To achieve the best wireless performance, review these guidelines before deciding where to place your
RSGu3500:
•
Connect at least one computer through a wired Ethernet connection.
•
Placing your RSGu3500 in the physical center of your network is best, because its antenna sends out signal
in all directions.
•
Placing the RSGu3500 in a higher location, such as on top of a cabinet, helps disperse the signal cleanly,
especially to upper floors.
•
If possible, position your RSGu3500 in direct line of sight with other home network devices using a wireless
connection.
•
Avoid placing the RSGu3500 next to large, solid objects like computer cases, monitors, walls, fireplaces, etc.
This helps the signal penetrate more cleanly.
•
Other wireless devices, such as televisions, radios, microwaves, or 2.4 GHz cordless telephones, can
interfere with the signal. Keep these devices away from the RSGu3500.
•
Mirrors, especially those that are silver-coated, can reduce transmission performance.
