There are two major areas for possible improvement—the radio and the
data network. These sections provide a variety of items to check in both
categories, and in many cases, ways to improve performance.
NOTE:
Antennas are one of the most important portions of the wire-
less system. A properly installed antenna with an unobstructed
path to associated stations is the optimal configuration, and
should be among the first items checked when searching for
performance gains.
Stronger signals allow the use of wider bandwidths and higher
data speeds with fewer retries of data transmissions. Time
spent optimizing the antenna systems on both AP and Remote
stations will often have a huge benefit to system performance.
Refer to
INSTALLATION PLANNING on Page 163
for addi-
tional recommendations on antenna systems.
Table 3-11 on Page 142
provides suggested settings for typical installa-
tion scenarios. These settings provide a starting point for configuration
of AP and Remote units. Changes might be required to achieve the
desired results in a particular situation.
