ProSAFE Wireless-N Access Point WNAP320 Reference Manual 
For best results, place your wireless access point according to the following general 
guidelines:
•     
Near the center of the area in which your PCs will operate.
•     
In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected PCs have 
line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
•     
Away from sources of interference, such as PCs, microwaves ovens, and 2.4-GHz 
cordless phones.
•     
Away from large metal surfaces or water.
•     
Placing an external antenna in a vertical position provides best side-to-side coverage. 
Placing an external antenna in a horizontal position provides best up-and-down 
coverage. (An external antenna does not come standard with the WNAP320 wireless 
access point.)
•     
If you are using multiple wireless access points, it is better if adjacent wireless access 
points use different radio frequency channels to reduce interference. The recommended 
channel spacing between adjacent wireless access points is five channels (for example, 
use channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11, or 1 and 11).
The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security 
settings and placement. WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP 
encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.
Ethernet Cabling Requirements
The wireless access point connects to your LAN using twisted-pair Category 5 Ethernet cable 
with RJ-45 connectors.
LAN Configuration Requirements
For the initial configuration of your wireless access point, you need to connect a computer to 
the wireless access point.
Note:

Computer Hardware Requirements
To connect to the wireless access point on your network, each computer must have a 
802.11b/g or 802.11n wireless adapter installed.
