Guidelines for reducing interference on a wireless network
The following tips will help reduce the chances for interference in a wireless network:
●
Keep the wireless devices away from large metal objects, such as filing cabinets, and other
electromagnetic devices, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, as these objects can
disrupt radio signals.
●
Keep the wireless devices away from large masonry structures and other building structures as
these objects can absorb radio waves and lower signal strength.
●
Position the access point or wireless router in a central location in line of sight with the wireless
devices on the network.
●
Keep all wireless devices on the network within range of one another.
