Handling - Conrad 98 69 22 Notice D'emploi

16. Handling

Observe all safety information in these operating instructions!
• When setting up the product, make sure that the cables are neither bent nor
pinched.
• The following unfavourable conditions are to be avoided at the place of installa-
tion or during transport:
- dampness or high humidity
- extreme cold (<0°C) or heat (>35°C), direct sunlight,
- dust or fl ammable gases, fumes or solvents
- strong vibration, impact or blows,
- strong magnetic fi elds such as those near machines or speakers
• It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if
- the device shows visible damage
- the device no longer functions and if
- the device was stored under unfavourable conditions over an extended period
of time or
- following considerable stress during transportation.
• The maximum possible data transfer rate (e.g. 300MBit at 802.11b/g/n, i.e. about
37MByte/s) is never reached in practical operation. This is due to the used trans-
mission technology, transmission errors, the distance between the WLAN de-
vices, etc.
The transfer rate also decreases depending on distance between the repeater
and, e.g., your router.
• WLAN network connections should always be encrypted to prevent unauthorised
access, e.g. to your WLAN router. You should mainly use the encryption type
„WPA2" instead of „WPA" or „WEP", since „WPA" and „WEP" are no longer suf-
fi ciently safe against attacks.
• The range depends on the ambience conditions; reduction of the radio range may
be caused by:
- High-frequency interferences of all types (computers, screens, mobile phones)
- Buildings of all types and vegetation
- Conducting metal parts that are in the proximity of the devices or within or close
to radio routes, e.g. cables, radiators, metallised insulating glass windows, rein-
forced concrete ceilings, etc.
