Position your 4G-AX56

For optimal wireless transmission between the wireless router and connected wireless devices, ensure that you:

• Place the wireless router in a centralized area for a maximum wireless coverage for the network devices.
• Keep the wireless router within the view of sight of a window or clearance, and away from metal or solid obstructions and direct sunlight.
• Keep the wireless router away from conventional radio emission devices operating within the 2.4GHz spectrum. Devices such as Bluetooth, cordless phone, transformer, heavy duty motors, fluorescent lights, microwave oven, refrigerators, and other industrial equipment may interfere with the smooth transmission of 2.4GHz WiFi.
• Always update to the latest firmware. Visit the ASUS website at http://www.asus.com to get the latest firmware updates.
• Orient the antennas as shown in the drawing below.
