connect at all.
4.6.4 Line of sight and obstacles
For best results, WiFi and Bluetooth products should have a clear, direct line
of sight to the transceiver. Any physical obstruction can degrade or even
block the signal.
The construction of your vessel can also have an impact on performance. For
example, metal structural bulk heads and roofing, power cables and reflective
surfaces can reduce and in certain situations, block the signal.
The AIS transceiver should be installed at least 1m(3ft) away from:
● Other WiFi enabled products
● Transmitting products that send wireless signals in the same
frequency range
● Other electrical, electronic or electromagnetic equipment that may
generate interference.
