Setting up the Gigaset Router
The Gigaset Router can be set up in any suitable location in the home or office. You do
not need any special wiring. However you should comply with the following guidelines:
◆ Operate the Gigaset Router only indoors within a temperature range of +5 to +40 °C.
Do not position the Gigaset Router near a heat source. Do not cover the ventilation
slots.
◆ A mains socket for 220/230V~ and a connection socket for the DSL modem, cable
modem or LAN must be available where you set up the Gigaset Router.
◆ Do not place the router in the immediate vicinity of stereo equipment, TV sets or
microwave ovens. Otherwise this may cause interference.
◆ Position the Gigaset Router so that it is in the centre of your wireless network. In
general: The higher you place the antenna, the better the performance. Make sure
that where you position the Gigaset Router has optimum reception in the whole
house or office.
◆ Position the Gigaset Router on a non-slip surface.
The router feet do not normally leave any traces on the surface they are on.
However, some furniture surfaces may contain substances that attack and soften
the router's plastic feet. Then the feet may well mark the furniture surface.
◆ Position the Gigaset Router so that it cannot fall down and damage the antenna.
◆ Lay the cables so that nobody can trip over them. You should not cover the cables
with anything.
◆ Protect the Gigaset Router from dampness.
