NetComm Liberty Series - Wireless N150 Router
Placement of your 3G1�Wn
Just like your mobile phone, a 3G USB Modem’s location will affect its signal strength to the 3G Mobile Base Station (Cell Tower). The data
speed achievable from a 3G USB modem is relative to this signal strength, which is affected by many environmental factors. Please keep
in mind that the 3G USB Modem will need adequate signal strength in order to provide Internet connectivity whilst choosing a location to
place your 3G1�Wn - 3G Wireless N150 Router.
Similarly to the 3G USB modem, the wireless connection between the Router and your Wi-Fi devices will be stronger the closer your
connected devices are to your Router. Your wireless connection and performance will degrade as the distance between your Router and
connected devices increases. this may or may not be directly noticeable, and is greatly affected by the individual installation environment.
If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might be related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to
a position between three to ve meters from the Router in order to see if distance is the problem. If difculties persist even at close range,
please contact NetComm technical Support.
Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that your network is
not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may help.

Router Placement

Place your Router as close as possible to the centre of your wireless network devices. To achieve the best wireless network coverage for
your “wireless clients” (i.e., computers with built in or USB Wireless Adapters, Laptops with Built-in Wireless, Wireless PDA / iPhone, etc):
• Ensure that your Router’s antennas are parallel to each other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your Router itself
is positioned vertically, point the antennas in an upward direction as much as possible.
• In multi-storey homes, place the Router on a oor that is as close to the centre of the home as possible. This may mean placing the
Router on an upper oor.
• Try not to place the Router near a cordless telephone that operates at the same radio frequency as the 3G17Wn (2.4GHz).

Avoid obstacles and interference

Avoid placing your Router near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless
communication include:
• Refrigerators
• Washers and/or dryers
• metal cabinets
• Large aquariums
• metallic-based, UV-tinted windows
If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such as these are not blocking the signal’s path (between your
devices and Router).
