Troubleshooting note #2:
Eliminating interference caused by other appliances
Perform each step until the performance issue is solved.
1.
Identify potential electrical noise emitting appliances, and unplug them (if
possible) briefly while you test the adaptor’s network speed.
The following appliances are more likely to produce noise:
•
Battery chargers (including cell phone chargers)
•
Hair dryers
•
Vacuum cleaners
•
Lights or lamps which have a dimmer switch or a touch-sensitive on/off
feature
•
Power drills
2.
If unplugging a device seems to resolve the adaptor’s performance issue,
connect the device to a different wall outlet.
3.
If connecting the device to a different wall outlet does not resolve the
performance issue, connect the device to a noise filtering power strip with an
AC cord that is at least 3 m (about 10 ft.) long.
