Factors Affecting Wireless Range

A number of factors can affect the usable range for wireless connections.

Note: Note that decreasing the range of your wireless network may be bene-

ﬁcial, as long as the decreased range is sufﬁcient for your needs. By lim-

iting your network’s range, you reduce interference with other networks

and make it harder for unwant ed users to ﬁnd and connect to your net-

work.

Note: Setting the trasmit power level to High increases the range. Setting it

to Medium or Low decreases the range proportionately.

Increases range: • Raising the unit above the devices (for example, in-

stalling the Telephony Gateway in the upper ﬂoor of a

multi-story dwelling)

• Adding wireless hubs in a bridge (WDS) network

Decreases range: • Lowering the unit below the devices (for example, in-

stalling the Telephony Gateway in a basement)

• Metal or concrete walls between the Telephony Gate-

way and other devices

• Large metal appliances, aquariums, or metal cabinets

between the Telephony Gateway and other devices

• Interference and RF noise (2.4 GHz wireless phones,

microwave ovens, or other wireless networks)
