Wall Mounting and Technical Specifications
This appendix provides instructions for wall mounting your router, and includes technical
specifications for the Wireless-N 300 Modem Router DGN2200.
Wall-Mounting Your Modem Router
Your router’s location can affect wireless connections. For example, the thickness and number of
walls the wireless signal must pass through may limit its range. For best results, place your router:
• Near an AC power outlet, close to computers you plan to connect with Ethernet cables, and
near locations where you use wireless computers. For best signal strength, the router should be
within line of sight of your wireless devices.
• In an elevated location, keeping the number of walls and ceilings between the wireless-N
modem router and your wireless computers to a minimum.
• Away from electrical devices that are potential sources of interference, such as ceiling fans,
home security systems, microwaves, or the base for a cordless phone.
To wall mount the wireless-N modem router:
1. Drill holes in the wall where you will wall-mount the router.
