Follow the directions that came with the router. This sounds sarcastic, but most users never read the manual. Start there.
As a general rule, connect your wireless router to your wired network using the provided Ethernet port.
Place the wireless router as close to the center of your coverage area as possible.
Align your antennas straight up and down. Your antennas radiate in a pattern like a pancake. They typically have a 8-20 degree vertical beam width radiating out from the center of your antenna. So if you turn the antennas at an angle, you are shooting your signal up into the roof and down into the ground.
If you purchased HauteSpot Networks equipment, we have extensive video tutorials on mounting your wireless router included on our web site.
Vidovation demos portable wireless network video recorder. The microNVR is ideal for many applications combining on-site edge recording with live wireless relay such as in-vehicle video monitoring, light pole mounted video monitoring, solar powered remote video monitoring stations, camera back video recording and relay, and a pocket-carried video recorder.
We put the HauteSpot microNVR and Global Emergency Resources eWRAP to the test. Driving 700 miles from Meridian, Mississippi to Augusta, Georgia, we put a Mobotix megapixel camera attached to a microNVR and eWRAP in a moving van. The microNVR recorded at full frame rate and resolution all of the video from the camera. It also transcoded and pushed video out over the eWRAP using 3G EvDO wireless. The push architecture remained connected throughout the entire trip including through some relatively remote areas. See as short captured video of this test. 70 miles an hour, 700 miles, 10fps, VGA…
