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.
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).
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
