Wireless Tip

The following are some general wireless tips to help minimize the impact of interference
within an environment.
Assign your network a unique SSID. Do not use anything that would be identifying like
"Smith Family Network". Choose something that you would easily identify when
searching for available wireless networks.
Do not turn off the SSID broadcast. The SSID broadcast is intended to be on and
turning it off can cause connectivity issues. The preferred method of securing a wireless
network is to choose a strong form of encryption with a strong and varied encryption
key.
Note: after setting up the SSID, encryption type and encryption key/passphrase, please
make a note of them for future reference. You will need this information to connect your
wireless computers to the wireless router/access point.
Change the channel. Most wireless access points and routers are defaulted to channel
6. If you have a site survey tool that will display the channels you can plan your channel
selection around neighboring access points to minimize interference from them. If your
site survey tool does not display the channel try using channels 1 or 11.
If you are using an 802.11n router or access point you can also make the following
changes. Change the channel bandwidth to 20/40MHz. This will provide the highest
possible performance using an 802.11n device. Also, if using 802.11n you should be
securing the network with WPA2 security.
Note: Due to Wi-Fi certification considerations if you choose WEP, WPA or WPA2-TKIP
encryption this device may operate in legacy wireless mode (802.11b/g). You may not
get 802.11n performance as these forms of encryption are not supported by the 802.11n
specification.
Please also make sure that the wireless hardware is not placed in any type of shelving
or enclosures.
Avoid stacking hardware on top of each other to prevent overheating issues. Maintain
enough free space around the hardware for good ventilation and airflow. There should
also be plenty of free space around the antennas to allow the wireless signal to
propagate.
