7 Remove your hands from the RSU and make sure the RSU is
stationary.
The program determines and reports the strength of the signal
that the RSU receives while the RSU is in its current orientation.
8 Remembering the strongest signal reported, re-orient the front of
the RSU in the direction that the RSU was pointed when the
strongest signal was found.
9 After about five seconds, click Stop Scan. The lights on the RSU
stop blinking and become continuously lit.
10 After the lights stop blinking, observe the lights for about 30 to
90 seconds. Make sure the same number (or more) of indicator
lights stays on.
If the same number or more lights are on, you are ready to
use your high-speed Internet connection.
If fewer lights are on, complete the fine tuning steps de-
scribed in the section, “Fine-tuning the connection to the ser-
vice provider” on page 16 in this guide.
You only need to re-run the LinkMonitor program and repeat the
scan when you power down your RSU and
move it.

FINE-TUNING THE CONNECTION TO THE SERVICE
PROVIDER
After performing initial setup, most users will be able to operate their
RSU without further fine-tuning.
However, if you notice fewer lights on the RSU are lit after 30 to 90
seconds of use, fine tune the connection to the service provider. The
fine-tune procedure ensures the signal received from the service
provider is strong (as indicated by the number of lights lit) and high-
quality (as indicated by the number of lights lit over time.)
1 Unplug the Ethernet cable from the computer.
2 The current position of your RSU is its starting point. Point the
RSU slightly to the left of its starting point. Note the number of
indicator lights that blink.
3 Point the RSU slightly to the right of its starting point. Note the
number of indicator lights that blink.
