CHAPTER 2
Installing the HomePortal Intelligent
Gateway
The installation of your gateway consists of the following tasks:

Determining Gateway Location

Before installing the gateway, you must determine an appropriate location. The gateway must be installed near
the main computer to connect through any of the Local Ethernet ports. Wireless signals are affected by many
items in homes and offices. Reliability and performance are the major considerations when planning your
wireless network location.
Consider the following suggestions when determining the wireless AP location:
•
Place your gateway at least 5 feet (1.52 meters) from cordless phones, microwave ovens, or other
electronic devices to avoid potential interference, and more than 6 inches (15.24 centimeters) away
from your television to avoid audio hissing or static.
•
Place the gateway in an open area where the wireless range will be susceptible to the least possible
interference from its surroundings. Wireless signal strength will be much stronger in an open area than
an area with obstructions. In a single-story building, place the gateway as high and as close to each
wireless computer as possible.
•
Keep the gateway away from large metal objects. Wireless signal quality deteriorates if metal objects
reflect or obstruct signals.
•
Keep the gateway away from water sources like water coolers and fish tank.
Note
It is recommended that the stand provided with the gateway be used to install the gateway in a vertical
position, such that nothing can be stacked on top of it.

Connecting the Power Adapter

To power on the gateway:
1.
Connect one end of the power adapter to the POWER port of your gateway.
2.
Connect the cable's other end to an electrical outlet.
Once the gateway is powered on, the power LED blinks green for a brief period of time and then turns steady
green.
