operation; therefore choose placement wisely and
try to reduce interference in the beginning will

To choose Wi-Fi Enabler placement:
For best results, place your RCA Wi-Fi Enabler:

computer and radio will operate.
• In an elevated location such as a high shelf
where the wirelessly connected radio have line-
of-sight access (even if through walls).
• Avoid obstacles to wireless signals.
• Keep wireless devices at least 2 feet (0.6m) from
large metal fixtures such as file cabinets,
refrigerators, pipes, metal ceilings, reinforced
concrete, and metal partitions.
• Keep wireless devices away from large amounts
of water such as fish tanks and water coolers.
To reduce interference:
• Avoid windows unless communicating between
buildings.

electromagnetic noise sources, especially those

– 2.4 and 2.5GHz cordless phones, computers,
other wireless routers, access points and fax
machines (no closer than 1 foot (0.3m)).
– Copying machines, elevators, and cell phones
(no closer than 6 feet (1.8m)).
