Wireless Installation Considerations
The RocketFish RF-HTN104 wireless router allows you to access your network via a wireless connection from anywhere within its operating range. However, keep in mind
that there are factors that affect the signal strength and range of your connection. The number of objects the signal must pass through together with the number of radio
frequencies in the area will have an effect on the range. Remember these tips to maximize the wireless range of your network:
1. Keep the number of walls or ceilings that the signal must pass through to a minimum. Each wall or ceiling that the signal must pass through will have an adverse
affect on the range of your network.
2. Be aware of the direct line between the devices. A wall that is at an angle will mean that signal needs to pass through a greater surface area than the normal
thickness of the wall.
3. Building materials make a difference. Try to position access points, routers and computers so that the signal passes through open doorways or through drywall.
Materials such as glass, metal, steel, walls with insulation, bodies of water such as fish tanks, mirrors, file cabinets, brick and concrete will degrade your wireless
signal.
4. Keep your wireless router at least 3-6 feet (1-2 meters) away from other devices which generate radio frequencies.
5. If you choose to operate the wireless router on the 2.4GHz spectrum, be aware that this is more commonly used than the 5GHz spectrum and is therefore
susceptible to interference from devices such as microwaves and cordless phones. Try to keep the base station of your cordless phone as far away as possible from
the wireless router as the base station will transmit a signal even if the phone is not in use.
