Reference Manual for the NETGEAR ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAG302
3-2 Basic Installation and Configuration
202-10078-01
For best results, place your wireless access point:
• Near the center of the area in which your PCs will operate.
• In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected PCs have
line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
• Away from sources of interference, such as PCs, microwaves, and 2.4 GHz cordless phones.
• Away from large metal surfaces.
• Putting the antenna in a vertical position provides best side-to-side coverage. Putting the
antenna in a horizontal position provides best up-and-down coverage.
• If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different
radio frequency
Channels to reduce interference. The recommended Channel spacing between adjacent access
points is 5 Channels (for example, use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11).
The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security
settings and placement. WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP
encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.
Cabling Requirements
The WAG302 Access Point connects to your LAN via twisted-pair Category 5 Ethernet cable with
RJ-45 connectors.
Note: Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance
degradation or inability to wirelessly connect to the WAG302. For complete
performance specifications, see Appendix A, “Specifications.
