Positioning the

You should place the Router in a location that:

■ is centrally located to the wireless computers that will connect to the
Router. A suitable location might be on top of a high shelf or similar
furniture to optimize wireless connections to computers in both
horizontal and vertical directions, allowing wider coverage.
■ allows convenient connection to the computers that will be connected
to the four LAN ports on the rear panel, if desired.
■ allows easy viewing of the front panel LED indicator lights, and access
to the rear panel connectors, if necessary.
