INTRODUCTION

Revolutionary N Wireless Technology with MIMO (N MIMO)

Think of conventional radio transmission as a two-lane highway. The

speed limit governs the maximum allowable flow of traffic through

that lane. Compared with conventional radios, one-dimensional smart

antenna systems help move traffic through that lane faster and more

reliably—analogous to a four-lane road on which traffic consistently

moves at a rate closer to the speed limit. Belkin’s N MIMO helps

traffic move at the speed limit and opens more lanes—to become the

superhighway in this example. The rate of traffic flow is multiplied by the

number of lanes that are opened.

Your Belkin N Wireless Modem Router uses a new smart-antenna

technology called Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). N MIMO

complies with the IEEE draft 802.11n specification. It increases

speed, range, reliability, and spectral efficiency for wireless

networking systems.

The element that makes Belkin’s N MIMO technology different

from a conventional radio is the use of multiple antennas and two

simultaneous data streams to deliver wireless transfers around your

home or office. A conventional radio uses one antenna to transmit a

data stream. Belkin’s N MIMO, on the other hand, uses two antennas.

This design helps combat distortion and interference. Belkin’s N MIMO

is multidimensional. It builds on one-dimensional smart-antenna

technology by simultaneously transmitting two data streams through the

same channel, which increases wireless capacity.

Another element that enhances Belkin’s N MIMO is the use of

aggregation as specified in the draft 802.11n specification. By shortening

the space between packets and combining multiple smaller packets

into one larger packet, Belkin’s N MIMO can transmit more data through

available bandwidth.

INTRODUCTION

• Ensure that your Router’s networking antennas are parallel to each

other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your

Router itself is positioned vertically, point the antennas as much as

possible in an upward direction.

• In multistory homes, place the Router on a floor that is as close

to the center of the home as possible. This may mean placing the

Router on an upper floor.

• Try not to place the Router near a cordless 2.4GHz phone.

2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference

Avoid placing your Router near devices that may emit radio “noise,”

such as microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless

communication include:

• Refrigerators

• Washers and/or dryers

• Metal cabinets

• Large aquariums

• Metallic-based UV tinted windows

Placement of your N Wireless Modem Router

Important Factors for Placement and Setup

Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is

to your Router. Typical indoor operating range for wireless devices is

between 100 and 200 feet.

In the same way, your wireless connection and performance will degrade

somewhat as the distance between your Router and connected devices

increases. This may or may not be noticeable to you. As you move

further from your Router, connection speed may decrease. Factors that

can weaken signals simply by getting in the way of your network’s radio

waves are metal appliances or obstructions, and walls.

If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might

be related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to

a position between five and 10 feet from the Router in order to see if

distance is the problem. If difficulties persist even at close range, please

contact Belkin Technical Support.

Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network

performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from

functioning; if you are concerned that your network is not operating at

its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may help.

1. Router Placement

Place your Router, the central connection point of your network, as

close as possible to the center of your wireless network devices.

To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless clients”

(i.e., computers enabled by Belkin Wireless Notebook Network Cards,

Wireless Desktop Network Cards, and Wireless USB Adapters):

INTRODUCTION

4. Choose the “Quietest” Channel for your Wireless Network

In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as

apartment buildings or office complexes, there may be wireless

networks nearby that can conflict with yours.

Use the Site Survey capabilities found in the Wireless Utility of your

wireless adapter to locate any other wireless networks that are available

(see your wireless adapter’s user manual), and move your Router and

computers to a channel as far away from other networks as possible.

• Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in

order to find the clearest connection and avoid interference from

neighboring cordless phones or other wireless devices.

• For Belkin wireless networking products, use the detailed Site

Survey and wireless channel information included with your

wireless network card. See your network card’s user guide for

more information.

These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area

with your Router. Should you need to cover an even wider area, we

suggest the Belkin Wireless Universal Range Extender/Access Point.

If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that

objects such as these are not blocking the signal’s path (between your

computers and Router).

3. Cordless Phones

If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after attending

to the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:

• Try moving cordless phones away from your Router and your

wireless-enabled computers.

• Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that

operates on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s information). If

this fixes the problem, your phone may be interfering.

• If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on

the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network. For

example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your Router to

channel 11. See your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions.

• If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz

cordless phone.

5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL

Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and

are used where security is important. Secure connections include:

• Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect

remotely to an office network

• The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online (AOL),

which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by another

cable or DSL service

• Most online banking websites

• Many commercial websites that require a user name and password

to access your account

Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power

management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest

solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by rerunning the VPN or

AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website.

A second alternative is to change your computer’s power management

settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate

for portable computers. To change your power management setting

under Windows, see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel.

If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connections, VPNs, and

AOL, please review the steps above to be sure you have addressed

these issues.
