What You Need Before You Begin

You need to consider the guidelines and requirements in the following sections before you

can set up your wireless access point.

See also System Requirements on page 8.

• Wireless Equipment Placement and Range Guidelines

• Ethernet Cabling Requirements

• LAN Configuration Requirements

• Hardware Requirements for Computers on Your LAN

• Requirements for Entering IP Addresses

Wireless Equipment Placement and Range Guidelines

The range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the location of the

wireless access point. The latency, data throughput performance, and power consumption of

wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration choices.

Note: Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant

performance degradation or inability to connect wirelessly to the

wireless access point. For complete performance specifications, see

Appendix A, Supplemental Information.

For best results, place your wireless access point according to the following general

guidelines:

• Near the center of the area in which the wireless devices will operate.

• In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected devices have

line-of-sight access (even if through walls).

• Away from sources of interference, such as computers, microwaves ovens, and 2.4 GHz

cordless phones.

• Away from large metal surfaces or water.

The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security

settings and placement. WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP

encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer

Note: Before you position and mount the wireless access point at its

permanent position, first configure the wireless access point and test

the computers on your LAN for wireless connectivity as explained in

this chapter.
