 CENTRIA WNDR4700/WNDR4720
•     
Near the center of the area where your computers and other devices operate and 
preferably within line of sight to your wireless devices.
•     
So it is accessible to an AC power outlet and near Ethernet cables for wired computers.
•     
In an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings 
between the router and your other devices to a minimum.
•     
Away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference. Equipment that 
might cause interference includes ceiling fans, home security systems, microwaves, 
computers, the base of a cordless phone, or 2.4 GHz cordless phone. 
•     
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.
When there is more than one wireless network in the area and they use the same channel, 
that can create interference in some instances. If this happens, you can use a different radio 
frequency channel to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing is five 
channels. Fr example, different networks in the same area could use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 
and 11.
