Wireless Router Performance Note that wireless performance depends on a number of factors. Please keep these things in mind: • Where possible, put the MG8702 in a central place so that it's not too far away from your other wireless devices. • Try to avoid interference from other wireless devices such as Bluetooth headsets and stereos, microwave ovens, wireless printers, and 2.4 GHz cordless phones and base stations. Don't put the MG8702 close to these interfering devices. • Sometimes it helps to change the MG8702 wireless channel frequency to reduce interference with neighbors' wireless networks. This is discussed in the Troubleshooting section of this Quick Start. • Wireless range can be limited by issues like weak wireless clients and challenging building configurations. Some devices that connect to the MG8702 do not have as powerful a wireless signal, so those devices may slow down your network's WiFi. If you need greater wireless range far away from your MG8702, you could add a Range Extender. • If you have coaxial cable running near your router and a distant wireless access point, HDTV, or other device, a Motorola MoCA Adapter is often a good way to connect the router to the device. MoCA can share the same cable used for cable TV or cable Internet and features speeds up to 1,000 Mbps. Please see www.motorolanetwork.com/MocaWifi 11
