Разположение на безжичния рутер
български
За постигане на максимално добро предаване на безжичните сигнали
между безжичния рутер и свързаните с него мрежови устройства трябва:
• Да поставите безжичния рутер на централно място за максимално покритие
на мрежовите устройства.
• Рутерът да е отдалечен от метални прегради и да не е изложен на слънчева
светлина.
• Рутерът да е отдалечен от Wi-Fi устройства 802.11g или 20MHz, компютърни
периферни устройства 2.4GHz, Bluetooth (блутут) устройства, безжични
телефони, трансформатори, мощни мотори, флуоресцентни лампи,
микровълнови печки, хладилници и други промишлени машини за
избягване на смущенията или загубите на сигнала.
• За осигуряване на максимално добър сигнал трите свалящи се антени да се
ориентират както е показано на схемата по-долу.
• За оптимална да се регулира вътрешната охлаждаща система. Повече
подробности са дадени в ръководството на потребителя.
• Винаги използвайте най-новите версии на фърмуера. Посетете сайта на
ASUS http://www.asus.com за сваляне на последните версии на фърмуера.
