Appendix A - Wireless Basics Tips Here are a few things to keep in mind when you are installing your Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Access Point. Centralize the extender's location For best performance, make sure you place the extender in a centralized location within your desired usage area. Try to place the extender so that there are minimal obstructions between it and the uplink router. If possible, use an elevated power outlet, so the signal can be dispersed more easily. If you have a large home or usage area, you may need several extenders in order to achieve optimal coverage. Eliminate Interference Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible from the extender. This can significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency. Security Don't let your neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by utilizing the WPA or WEP security feature on the extender and uplink router. Refer to "Wireless Security" on page 76 for more information.

Appendix A - Wireless Basics
Tips
Here are a few things to keep in mind when you are installing your Wireless AC1200 Dual Band Access Point.
Centralize the extender’s location
For best performance, make sure you place the extender in a centralized location within your desired usage area. Try to place
the extender so that there are minimal obstructions between it and the uplink router. If possible, use an elevated power outlet,
so the signal can be dispersed more easily. If you have a large home or usage area, you may need several extenders in order
to achieve optimal coverage.
Eliminate Interference
Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and televisions as far away as possible from the extender.
This can significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they operate on same frequency.
Security
Don’t let your neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network. Secure your wireless network by utilizing the WPA or
WEP security feature on the extender and uplink router. Refer to
“Wireless Security” on page 76
for more information.
