Observing Placement and Range Guidelines
The operating distance or range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the 
physical placement of the wireless access point. The latency, data throughput performance, and 
notebook power consumption of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration 
choices.
For best results, place your wireless access point:
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, and 2.4 GHz cordless phones.
Away from large metal surfaces.
If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different 
radio frequency 
Channels to reduce interference. The recommended Channel spacing between adjacent access 
points is 5 Channels (for example, use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11).
The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security 
settings and placement. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) connections can take slightly longer to 
establish. Also, WEP encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook PC.
Note: 
Indoors, computers can connect over wireless networks at ranges of several 
hundred feet or more. This distance can allow for others outside your area to access your 
network. It is important to take appropriate steps to secure your network from 
unauthorized access. The WG602 v3 Access Point provides highly effective security 
features which are covered in detail in 
. Deploy the security 
features appropriate to your needs.
Note: 
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance 
degradation or inability to wirelessly connect to the WG602 v3. For complete 
performance specifications, see
