Adjust antenna alignment

Fig. 44. Adjusting alignments of external directional antennas.

TIP: You can make use of the Antenna Alignment Assistance feature to help you align

the directional antennas.

Fig. 45. Antenna alignment assistance.

Instead of using PING.exe, you can run Wireless Network Manager on Computer 1, and

go to the Antenna Alignment tab. Click Start to begin monitoring the WDS link quality.

Adjust the alignment of the antenna of DRBAP as Bridge 1 until the Link quality indi-

cator shows a relatively maximal value. Finally, click Stop to stop monitoring WDS link

quality.
