AirPort Express Placement Considerations

The following recommendations can help your AirPort Express achieve maximum

wireless range and optimal network coverage.
 Place your AirPort Express in an open area where there are few obstructions,

such as large pieces of furniture or walls. Try to place it away from metallic surfaces.

 If you place your AirPort Express behind furniture, keep at least an inch of space

between the AirPort Express and the edge of the furniture.
