[Guidelines for the Hardware Installation]
Please observe the following guidelines when you are installing the PCI card to the
Desktop PC:
Avoid placing the PC close to obstacles
Obstructions such as concrete and thick walls limit radio signal penetration and reduce
the throughput and the coverage range of the PCI card.
Place the PC as high as possible
The higher the PC is placed, the better the performance.
Adjust the antenna position
The WLAN PCI card has two antennas for signal reception and one antenna for high
power signal transmission. The antennas on the right and left side are for signal reception
and should be set perpendicular (90 degrees) to each other. The central one is for signal
transmission and should be pulled up about 45 degree. Please refer to the
illustration below:
