ASUS WiFi-TVASUS WiFi-TVASUS WiFi-TVASUS WiFi-TVASUS WiFi-TV 2-52-52-52-52-5Operating rangeOperating rangeOperating rangeOperating rangeOperating rangeThe WiFi-TV range is dependent on the operating environment. Every homeor office layout varies in obstacles, barriers, or wall types that could reflector absorb radio signals. For example, two wireless devices in an open spacecan achieve an operating distance of up to 200 ft, while the same devicescan only achieve up to 80 ft when used indoors.By default, the device automatically adjusts the data rate to maintain anoperational wireless transmission. Therefore, a wireless device that is closeto the access point may operate at higher speeds while a wireless devicefar from the access point may operate at lower speeds.Site surveySite surveySite surveySite surveySite surveyA site survey (provided with the ASUS WiFi-TV card) analyzes theinstallation environment and recommends the best location for wirelessLAN devices and access points.
