Selecting Router Locations
Tropos routers are radio devices, and as such, they are susceptible to common causes of
interference that can reduce throughput and range. Follow these general guidelines when
selecting an installation location:
Install the router away from other possible sources of WLAN interference at 2.4 GHz or 4.9
GHz.
Choose a mounting surface that is at least 13.25 inches by 8 inches to provide sufficient
space to screw the router into the surface (
). It is not necessary to level the router.
