Steps to improve wireless connectivity
Windows 7
There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices. Follow
these tips to help improve your wireless connectivity:
a. Go into the Control Panel, click Network and Sharing Center.
b. Click Change Adapter Settings, right-click the Local Area Connection icon.
c. Then click Properties and click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).
d. Then click Obtain an IP address automatically and click OK.
Windows Vista
1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path,
rather than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the
more signal you will lose.
a. Go into the Control Panel, click Network and Internet.
b. Click Manage Network Connections, right-click the Local Area Connection
icon and click Properties.
2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce
the range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that
will minimize the amount of obstructions between them.
c. Click Internet Protocol Version (TCP/IPv4) and then click Properties.
d. Then click Obtain an IP address automatically and click OK.
Windows XP/2000
a. Go into the Control Panel, double-click the Network Connections icon
b. Right-click the Local Area Connection icon and the click Properties.
c. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.
d. Then click Obtain an IP address automatically and click OK.
MAC OS 10.4/10.5/10.6
3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor
environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes
through less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid
wood, glass or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.
a. From the Apple, drop-down list, select System Preferences.
b. Click the Network icon.
c. From the Location drop-down list, select Automatic.
d. Select and view your Ethernet connection.
4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use
the wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna
orientation for your wireless devices.
In MAC OS 10.4, from the Show drop-down list, select Built-in
Ethernet and select the TCP/IP tab.
In MAC OS 10.5/10.6, in the left column, select Ethernet.
e. Configure TCP/IP to use DHCP.
5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also
impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that
generates RF noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.
In MAC 10.4, from the Configure IPv4, drop-down list, select Using
DHCP and click the Apply Now button.
In MAC 10.5, from the Configure drop-down list, select Using DHCP
and click the Apply button.
6. Any device operating on the 2.4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices
such as 2.4GHz cordless phones or other wireless remotes operating on the
2.4GHz frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal.

Federal Communication Commission Interference
Statement
7. Although the phone may not be in use, the base can still transmit wireless
signal. Move the phone’s base station as far away as possible from your
wireless devices.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
8. Make sure that your router is in a good location.
a. For the widest coverage area, install your router near the center of your
home, and near the ceiling, if possible.
b. Avoid placing the router on or near metal objects (such as file cabinets and
metal furniture), reflective surfaces (such as glass or mirrors), and masonry
walls.
c. Any obstruction can weaken the wireless signal (even non-metallic
objects), so the fewer obstructions between the router and the wireless
device, the better.
d. Place the router in a location away from other electronics, motors, and
fluorescent lighting.
e. Many environmental variables can affect the router’s performance, so if
your wireless signal is weak, place the router in several locations and test
the signal strength to determine the ideal position.
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from thatto which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
If possible, upgrade wireless network interfaces (such as wireless cards in computers)
from older wireless standards to 802.11n. If a wirelessly networked device uses an older
standard, the performance of the entire wireless network may be slower. If you are still
experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing
additional access point.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are
country dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match the intended
destination. The firmware setting is not accessible by the end user.
