2. Introduction
The TEW-647GA Wireless N Gaming Adapter is an high-performance, supports high-speed
wireless networking at home, at work or in public places. This bridge is also back compatible
with 802.11g or 11b devices. This means that you do not need to change your entire network to
maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 11n’s speed when you mix 11n and 11b/g
devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 11n standard
into your 11b/g network. You may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing
the 11b/g devices with 11n devices.

3.3 Installation Considerations
The TEW-647GAGaming Adapter allows you to access your network by using a wireless
connection from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind that the
number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless
signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the
types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business.
The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the TEW-647GA and other network
devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your wireless product’s range
from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or
ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5
meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a
2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the
signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better
reception.
3. Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum
studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and
computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open
doorways and not other materials.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or
appliances that generate extreme RF noise.
