Setting Up

You can install your access point on a pole. The mounting method will
be described as shown below.

Note the following guidelines for choosing the best location for your
wireless AP:

•

Place the AP as close as possible to the area where users will

require access to the WLAN.

•

Choose an elevated location where trees, buildings and large

steel structures will not obstruct the antenna signals and which
offers maximum line-of-sight propagation with the users.

•

Select an appropriate antenna to improve range and/or

coverage and the access point also lets you fine-tune
parameters such as the transmit power to achieve the best
results.
