[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:
