The user can configure the Net_ID (ESS). A valid Net_ID (ESS) is an
alphanumeric, case-sensitive identifier up to 32 characters. Ensure all nodes
within one LAN use the same Net_ID (ESS) to communicate on the same
LAN. Multiple wireless LANs can coexist in a single environment by assigning
different Net_IDs (ESS) for APs.
1.2.3 Site
Topography
For optimal performance, locate MUs and APs away from transformers,
heavy-duty motors, fluorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators and
other industrial equipment.
Signal loss can occur when metal, concrete, walls or floors block
transmission. Locate APs in open areas or add APs as needed to
improve coverage.
Site Surveys
A site survey analyzes the installation environment and provides users with
recommendations for equipment and its placement. The optimum placement
of 11 Mbps access points differs for 1 or 2 Mbps access points, because the
locations and number of access points required are different.
Symbol recommends conducting a new site survey and developing a new
coverage area floor plan when switching from 1 or 2 Mbps frequency-
hopping access points to 11 Mbps direct-sequence access points.
