| When positioning your Router, ensure: |
| ■ It is out of direct sunlight and away from sources of heat. |
| ■ Cabling is away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and |
| sources of electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and broadband |
| amplifiers. |
| ■ Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit. |
| ■ Air flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case |
| is not restricted. 3Com recommends you provide a minimum of |
| 25 mm (1 in.) clearance. |
Using the Rubber | Use the four |
Feet | moving around on your desk or when stacking with flat top units. Only |
| stick the feet to the marked areas at each corner of the underside of your |
| Router. |
| Please be careful when you put 3Com 11n ADSL Router on top of |
| another unit, if the unit underneath is hot, this may impact the reliability |
| of 3Com 11n ADSL Router. |

Wall Mounting | There are two slots on the underside of the Router that can be used for |
| wall mounting. The Router must be mounted with the LEDs facing |
| upwards. |
| When wall mounting the unit, ensure it is within reach of the power |
| outlet. When wall mounting the unit, ensure that the rubber feet are not |
| fixed. |
