2. Installation
This chapter offers information about installing your router. If you are not familiar with the
hardware or software parameters presented here, please consult your service provider for
the values needed.
2.1 Choosing the Best Location for Wireless Operation
Keep the numbers of walls and ceilings to the minimum:
The signal emitted from wireless LAN devices can penetrate through ceilings and
walls. However, each wall or ceiling can reduce the range of wireless LAN devices
from 1 ~ 30 miters. Position your wireless devices so that the number of walls or
ceilings obstructing the signal path is minimized.
Consider the direct line between access points and workstations:
A wall that is 0.5 meters thick, at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 1 meter
thick. At a 2-degree angle, it appears over 14 meters thick. Be careful to position
access points and client adapters so the signal can travel straight through (90º angle)
a wall or ceiling for better reception.
Building materials make difference:
Buildings constructed using metal framing or doors can reduce effective range of the
device. If possible, position wireless devices so that their signals can pass through
drywall or open doorways. Avoid positioning them in the way that their signal must
pass through metallic materials. Poured concrete walls are reinforced with steel while
cinderblock walls generally have little or no structural steel.
Position the antenna for best reception:
Play around with the antenna position to see if signal strength improves. Some
adapters or access points allow you to judge the strength of the signal.
Keep your product away (at least 1~2 meters) from electrical devices:
Keep wireless devices away from electrical devices that generate RF noise such as
microwave ovens, monitors, electric motors, etc.
2.2 Connecting the ADSL Router
See the following figure. Connect the DSL port of the DSL Router with a telephone
cable.
Connect the Ethernet port of the DSL Router to the network card of the PC via an
