I always have poor link quality and low signal.
Why do I get the warning
•Check if the device and the other station have the same Encryption. If WEP encryption is enabled, set the same WEP keys for the device and the AP.
•Check if the device and the other APs and/ or clients have the same Encryption. If you enable WEP encryption, you must set the same WEP keys for the device and the other APs and/or clients.
•Check the TCP/IP settings (IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS) of your computer.
•Enable file and printer sharing in each client computer to allow file sharing.
Do the following to achieve better link quality and stronger signal:
•Keep the device away from microwave ovens and large metal objects to avoid radio interference.
•Shorten the distance between the device and the AP/station.
