Positioning your wireless router

For the best wireless signal transmission between the wireless router and the

network devices connected to it, ensure that you:

• Place the wireless router in a centralized area for a maximum wireless coverage

for the network devices.

• Keep the device away from metal obstructions and away from direct sunlight.

• Keep the device away from 802.11g or 20MHz only Wi-Fi devices, 2.4GHz

computer peripherals, Bluetooth devices, cordless phones, transformers,

heavy-duty motors, uorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators, and other

industrial equipment to prevent signal interference or loss.

• To ensure the best wireless signal, orient the three detachable antennas as

shown in the drawing below.

• For optimum performance, adjust the internal cooling system. Refer to the user

manual for details.

• Always update to the latest rmware. Visit the ASUS website at

http://www.asus.com to get the latest rmware updates.
