For best results, place your wireless router:
• Near the center of the area in which your computers will operate.
• In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected computers have
line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
• Away from sources of interference, such as computers, microwave ovens, and 2.4 GHz
cordless phones.
• Away from large metal surfaces.
Information to Record before Changing Wireless Settings
Before changing wireless settings, NETGEAR recommends that you write them down. For an
existing wireless network, the person responsible for the network can provide this information.
Otherwise, you choose the settings for your wireless network. Either way, record the settings for
your wireless network on the following page.
