∙Rotate the FR3002AL wireless router and computers until the best signal strength is achieved

∙The number of walls windows, doorways and other building structures will reduce the range of the wireless signal. Place the FR3002AL router in the path of least resistance through these structures for the best signal quality to the wireless work- stations

∙The type of walls, windows, doorways or other building struc- tures will affect the range of the wireless signal. Structures such as metal framed housed, windows containing UV protec- tive film, and residences with multiple floors will all affect the signal quality
