Chapter 1: Product Overview
Router Positioning
The model RAC2V1S router provides network access from anywhere within range
of your wireless (WiFi) network. However, WiFi signal strength diminishes over
distance as it passes through the construction material of your home such as
drywall, metal and water.
For best results, follow the guidelines below.
•
Improve range by positioning the router at a central location and
minimizing the number of walls or ceilings between the router and
network devices.
•
Ensure optimum reception by positioning your device so that the
signal moves straight through drywall or open doorways instead
of at an angle.
•
Maintain wireless signal strength by positioning the router away
from glass, metal, water, mirrors, brick and concrete.
•
Avoid signal interference by keeping the router away from
electrical devices such as microwaves, baby monitors and wireless
headsets.
•
Keep the router and its cables accessible by placing it in an open
area near a power outlet.
