3INTRODUCTIONPlacement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal PerformanceYour wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is to your wireless router (or access point). Typical indoor operating range for your wireless devices is between 100 and 200 feet. In the same way, your wireless connection and performance will degrade somewhat as the distance between your wireless router (or access point) and connected devices increases. This may or may not be noticeable to you. As you move farther from your wireless router (or access point), connection speed may decrease. Factors that canweakensignalssimplybygettinginthewayofyournetwork’sradiowavesaremetalappliancesorobstructions,andwalls.Ifyouhaveconcernsaboutyournetwork’sperformancethatmightberelatedtorangeorobstructionfactors,trymoving the computer to a position between five and 10 feet from the wireless router (or access point) in order to see if distance is the problem. If difficulties persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning;ifyouareconcernedthatyournetworkisnotoperatingatitsmaximumeffectiveness,thischecklistmayhelp.
4INTRODUCTION1. Placement of your Wireless Router (or Access Point)Place your wireless router (or access point), the central connection point of your network, as close as possible to the center of your wireless network devices.To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless clients,” (i.e., computers enabled by Belkin Adapters or Cards): •Ensurethatyourwirelessrouter’s(oraccesspoint’s)antennas are parallel to each other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your wireless router (or access point) itself is positioned vertically, point the antennas as much as possible in an upward direction. •Inmultistoryhomes,placethewirelessrouter(oraccess point) on a floor that is as close to the center of the home as possible. This may mean placing the wireless router (or access point) on an upper floor. •Trynottoplacethewirelessrouter(oraccesspoint)nearacordless2.4GHzphone.2. Avoid Obstacles and InterferenceAvoid placing your wireless router (or access point) near devices that may emit radio “noise”, such as microwave ovens. Other objects that can inhibit wireless communication can include: •Refrigerators •Washersand/ordryers •Metalcabinets •Largeaquariums •Metallic-based,UV-tintedwindows •MicrowavesIf your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure thatobjectssuchasthesearenotblockingthesignal’spathbetween your computers and wireless router (or access point).
5INTRODUCTION3. Cordless Phone PlacementIf the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone: •Trymovingcordlessphonesawayfromthewirelessrouter(or access point) and your wireless-enabled computers. •Unplugandremovethebatteryfromanycordlessphonethatoperatesonthe2.4GHzband(checkmanufacturer’sinformation).Ifthisfixestheproblem,yourphonemaybeinterfering. •Ifyourphonesupportschannelselection,changethechannelon the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network aspossible.Forexample,changethephonetochannel1andmove your wireless router (or access point) to channel 11. (Your channel selection will vary depending on your region.) Seeyourphone’susermanualfordetailedinstructions. •Ifnecessary,considerswitchingtoa900MHzor5GHzcordlessphone.4. Choose the “Quietest” Channel for your Wireless NetworkIn locations where homes or offices are close together, such asapartmentbuildingsorofficecomplexes,theremaybewireless networks nearby that can conflict with yours. Use the Site Survey capabilities of your Belkin Wireless Networking Utility to locate any other wireless networks, and move your wireless router (or access point) and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as possible.Experimentwithmorethanoneoftheavailablechannelsinorder to find the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring cordless phones or other wireless devices.For more Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel information included in your User Manual.
6INTRODUCTION5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOLSecure connections typically require a user name and password, and are used where security is important. Secure connections include: •VirtualPrivateNetwork(VPN)connections,oftenused to connect remotely to an office network •The“BringYourOwnAccess”programfromAmericaOnline (AOL), which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another cable or DSL service •Mostonlinebankingwebsites •Manycommercialwebsitesthatrequireausername and password to access your accountSecureconnectionscanbeinterruptedbyacomputer’spowermanagement setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by re-running the VPN or AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website.Asecondalternativeistochangeyourcomputer’spowermanagement settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate for portable computers. To change your power management setting in Windows, see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel.If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs,andAOL,pleasereviewsteps1–4inthepreviouspages to be sure you have addressed these issues.Theseguidelinesshouldallowyoutocoverthemaximumpossiblearea with your wireless router. Should you need to cover an even wider area,wesuggesttheBelkinWirelessRangeExtender/AccessPoint.For more information regarding our networking products,visitourwebsiteatwww.belkin.com/networking or call Belkin Technical Support.

30TROUBLESHOOTINGData transfer is sometimes slow.Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and the throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance between devices increases. Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and metal appliances. As a result, the typical indoor range of your wireless devices will be between 100 to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed may decrease as you move farther from the wireless router (or access point).In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer, if possible, to five to 10 feet away from the wireless router (or access point). Please see the section titled, “Placement of your Wireless Networking Hardware for Optimal Performance.” If issues persist even at close range, please contact Belkin Technical Support.

The default channel the router is shipped with is channel 6. You may choose from several otherchannelsdependingonyourregion;seeyourrouter’s(oraccesspoint’s)usermanualforinstructionsonhowtochooseotherchannels.Limiting the wireless transmit rate –Limitingthewirelesstransmitratecanhelpimprovethemaximumwirelessrange,andconnectionstability. Most wireless cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this property, go to the Windows Control Panel, open“NetworkConnections”anddouble-clickonyourAdapter’sconnection.
