DVG-G1402S User’s Manual

D-Link Systems, Inc.
The D-Link DVG-G1402S lets you access your network, using a wireless connection, from
virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness
and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through,
may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background
RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range
is to follow these basic guidelines:
Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices
or appliances that generate RF noise.

Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DVG-G1402S and other
network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your router’s
range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of
walls or ceilings is minimized.
1
Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick
(.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At
a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that
the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for
better reception.
2
Building Materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may
have a negative effect on range. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and
computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials
and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (fish tanks),
mirrors, file cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
3
If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as
ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your wireless connection may
degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4GHz phone base is
as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal
even if the phone in not in use.
