2. Installation
Follow these steps to install the GN-AP101B Wireless Access Point.
1.Choose a proper place for GN-AP101B Wireless Access Point. In general, the best location is at the center of your wireless coverage area, within line of sight to all wireless devices. Keeping clear of metal obstructions and away from direct sunlight.
2.Place the GN-AP101B in the desired location. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the receiving sensitivity.
3.Attach one end of an RJ -45 Ethernet cable to the GN-AP101B and attach the other end to a network hub, switch, router, or patch panel (possibly on a wall).
4.Attach one end of the AC power adapter to the GN-AP101B and the other end to a power outlet. (Note: Only use the power adapter supplied by Gigabyte in the product package. Using a different adapter may result in product damage.)
For the average home, signal range should not be an issue. If you experience low or no signal strength in areas of your home that you wish to access, consider positioning the Access Point in a location directly between the computers with wireless adapters. Additional Access Points can be connected to provide better coverage in rooms where the signal does not appear as strong as desired.
