User's Manual

• In multistory homes, place the Modem on an upper floor.

• Try not to place the Modem near a cordless phone (MV400-series only).

2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference

Avoid placing your Modem near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as

microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless communication include:

• Refrigerators

• Washers and/or dryers

• Metal cabinets

• Large aquariums

• Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows

If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, try to move the Modem to

another location while observing the signal strength indicator. Since you may not

know the location of an EV-DO radio base station serving your Modem, try to call

your service provider and ask for the nearest base station of your home. Try

placing the Modem closest and unobstructed to that base station.
