Usage tips
Placement makes a real difference. Mount the device where it has clear line of sight to the area you want to cover and use the PoE injector when a nearby power outlet is impractical. If you need separate guest and main networks, enable Multi‑SSID to keep traffic segmented. Bear in mind that actual throughput will vary with distance and local interference.
