Finding a Suitable Location 
You can install the Gateway in any location with access to the cable network. All of the cables connect 
to the rear panel of the Gateway for better organization and utility. The LED indicators on the front panel 
are easily visible to provide you with information about network activity and status. 
For optimum performance, the location you choose should: 
Be close to a working AC power outlet 
Allow sufficient air flow around the Gateway to keep the device as cool as possible 
Not expose the Gateway to a dusty or wet environment 
Be an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings between the 
Gateway and your other devices to a minimum 
Be away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference, such as ceiling fans, 
home security systems, microwaves, or the base for a cordless phone 
Be away from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or aluminum studs. Large 
expanses of other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks, mirrors, brick, and concrete 
can also affect your wireless signal.
