3. Fix the alignment of the antenna on one side.
4. Adjust the alignment of the antenna on other side by using response time information
obtained from PINGing (run PING.exe) the “fixed-side” computer.
5. Fine-tune the alignment of the antenna until you get the best response time.
6. Increase the data rate of each SMC2585W-G simultaneously until an optimal workable
data rate is reached. You may not be able to use the highest data rate, 54Mbps, be-
cause of the distance and the gain of the antennas.
