Best mounting location for a 1131AG AP with intergrated antenna

Hi Guys.
Im deciding on the best mounting location and height to mount a aironet 1131AG Access point with intergrated antenna. Can anyone tell me the beam spread/angle that comes from these access points ?
thanks.

Hi Jason,
Just to add a note to the good info from Andrew. The Radiation pattern for the 1131 is shown nicely in the doc (towards the very end);

Hope this helps!

  • Best Mounting Location For AirPort Extreme 802.11ac

    Hello,
    I have used various models of the AirPort Extreme over the years and always mounted them at the highest peak of the ceiling in my home. It was always stated that they transmitted in roughly 360 degrees. Now I just upgraded to an AirPort Extreme 802.11ac model and have a third-party accessory mount that is metal for the first time (see attached picture). So, this changes the game somewhat. If this AirPort model also transmits in all directions, then that might mean I need to mount it with the metal mount to the ceiling or even inverted. Of course, just an initial test with this mount on the unit and tacked on the wall upright/horizontally with duct tape shows great reception IN the whole home. I just want to get the most efficient operation with 12 acres of land OUTSIDE. HA!
    So, any comment on this from those much smarter than I?
    Peace,
    Dr. Z.

    I think you are over analysing..
    Mount it at the same height as the receiver.. more or less. In a convenient spot.. where you can run the cables easily.
    I doubt the stand will matter a lot.. and I would not turn it upside down.
    https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/AirPort+Extreme+A1521+Teardown/15044
    From this picture the antennas are at the extreme top of the unit.. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/hUjlbvRWjoqQLDy6.huge
    And I mean right up the top. so a piece of metal around that area of the TC will do nothing at all.

  • Best Physical Location for AEBS

    By the end of the summer I plan on upgrading my old Airport base station to the current model. What is the consensus on the best physical location for the station? We have a two-story brick home with a basement and I plan on using the AEBS for wireless and as a router to my computer, Directv receiver and gaming system. The easiest install would be for me to mount it between the floor joists in the basement (the basement "ceiling"), however I don't know if that will severely restrict the range. I could install it in a closet on the first floor, but would need to run a phone line, cat5e cable and power to make it work.
    We are really only looking to have the wi-fi available within the structure of the house and maybe the back yard- not the entire neighborhood.

    As a follow up, here's what I ended up doing:
    I mounted my AEBS in a first-floor closet located in the middle of our home. Since the AEBS has three ethernet ports out, I ran cat5e cable to the 1st floor Directv receiver, the office and the basement gaming system. The only things running wirelessly at this point is the Wii, my old G4 iBook, my son's DSi and a couple of iPod Touch's. The range is good and I've found no dead spots within our home or our yard.

  • Which is the Best wireless card for the MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard?

    I have the Option GT Ultra Express on AT&T, but ever since I upgraded to snow leopard every update has been messing it up and I'm more than done with this card, Ill even switch carriers if I have to, what cards are the best to use? and who has been having the best performance with theirs?
    I guess I should also add that I'm in New York, reception would be an issue too, I get between 2 and 3 bars at my desk and would like to stay with that.
    Message was edited by: NeoMental

    I'm sorry, but isn't the Option GT Ultra Express an ExpressCard you plug in to the left side port on your MBP to gain wireless access when your AirPort card doesn't work in a given location?
    if so, the only difference between that and the dongle that I described is that the dongle uses the USB instead of ExpressCard format.
    I'm sorry if I misunderstood.
    It would also help if you could describe the exact nature of the problem. There are topics here that address Option brand drivers issues with links to updated drivers that are supposed to work with SL.
    Without more info, I'm afraid I can't suggest much else.
    Cheers, mate.

  • Best file location for VS2013 Windows Form applications on a stand alone PC (Windows 7) upgrading from VS2008 Standard?

    Hi and Help,
    I'm in the process of upgrading my VS2008.Standard Windows Forms apps to VS2013.Pro.  My concern is I've got the VS2008 apps scattered in folders all over my disc; this includes the VS2008 published apps. 
    All of the converted apps are being stored in one folder,
    VB13_AppSource, in their own sub-folders.  (I don't know if it makes any difference here, but all of these apps, except one which is a Sudoku screen app, use SQL2005.Express.  After I've made all the conversions, I'll upgrade SQL
    to the latest Express available down the road in several months.  Included will be an upgrade from my current SSMS to the latest SQL Server Management Studio. )
    What I'd like from you are recommendations and document locations on how to store VS2013 apps on my C drive.  Please note that I'm using Net 4.5.1.  Some of my thoughts are:
    Source folder for all applications
    Folder for all published apps
    Folder for Class Library(s?)
    Folder for Active SQL Databases
    Folder for Test SQL Databases
    Thanks for your help,

  • Best cooling pad for Macbook pro 15" with retina (2013)?

    Hi,
    I have a Macbook pro 15" with retina display, bought in 2013 and I started playing Starcraft on the machine. It becomes extremely hot, almost unbearable to touch and after searching online, I've been told that overheating of macs is relatively common. It is also extremely noisy. Firstly, is this something that I should be worried about, i.e. is it normal? (it is still under warranty) Also, I was looking to get a cooling pad- which one would you recommend? I couldn't find many macbook pro w/ retina display specific ones, so I thought maybe a generic laptop cooling pad?
    There are so many to choose from and I don't know where to start! Perhaps the Cooler Master NotePal X3?
    Thank you for your help!

    is it normal?
    Is the game rated for the GPU on the Mac (look at the game's specs)?  If not, then I would not run it on that Mac.
    If it is rated for the GPU on the Mac, then no, it is not normal, and I would have the machine looked at, after running the hardware test that came with it.
    See my tip about MacBook Pro heat:
    kmb kmbp: How to deal with MacBook Pro and MacBook heat?
    The GPU is the Graphics Processor Unit.
    A cooling pad might help, but it might also mask a more serious problem.      I've used this cooler on Powerbooks before:
    http://www.amazon.com/Antec-Notebook-Cooler-USB-Powered/dp/B0000BVYTV
    But only outside warranty.   Mind you, because of the heat, sometimes some of the darker markings on the edge of the cooler and come off on the bottom of the notebook.  Hence why I would only use it outside of warranty, since such marks may make the AppleCare representative think you might have done something to damage it.

  • Best 2013 Mac for Pro Video Production with FC Pro X?

    We run a small video production company and it's time to upgrade. What is the best current Mac configuration and product for video production. I have a 2013 Macbook Pro that is maxed out but I get choked down by the video card when doing more than 3 multi-cams.
    So we need some systems that can handle more cam views and that speeds up produciton.
    Thanks for your help.
    ~David

    I recently took possession of a new Mac Pro (8-core) and it's obvious that it "was made" for FCPX.  Unbelievable performance.  FCP7...oh well, it works as well as could be expected, but no miracles. It's an old app that doesn't benefit from all the cores and memory, but still my standard.

  • Best export setting for Final Edit Master with AVCHD

    Hey Guys,
    I have been editing AVCHD footage shot from the Panasonic TM700 cam, footage shot in 1080p 60p.  After I have finished my edits and I want to render out a MASTER film that I can use in multiple fronts if I need, what is the best setting to render out to?
    I have a friend in the compression biz, and he tells me to render out to mpeg2 main concepts codec at 50Mbps setting, your thoughts?  In this setting I cannot render out at 59.94, only 29.97 or 30.  What should I do?
    Chris

    The best Master will be something lossless, something that doesn't degrade the image any further.  That leaves out all MPEG options.
    You can go Uncompressed, or install the free Lagarith or UT codecs on your system.  They're lossless codecs, so they will compress it to make a smaller file than full Uncompressed, but without any loss of quality.
    From there, you can use that to transcode to any other format you like.

  • Best hard drive for use with Time Machine

    Hi,
    Has anyone determined what the best external hard drive is for use with Time Machine? Is there a particular one that works exceptionally well with Time Machine, or is it much of a muchness?
    I'm looking for a Firewire 400 & Firewire 800 drive that STAYS ON all the time, and doesn't automatically spin down or spin up like the rubbish WD My Book drives do.

    I can't tell you if it is the "best" hard drive for you to use with TM, but I'm quite happy with the 500 GB Buffalo Technology DriveStation Combo TurboUSB I bought recently. It is quiet, quite inexpensive for the capacity (I paid about $120 for one on sale at Fry's), & completely compatible with OS X & TM.
    Best of all for me, it automatically powers down when my iMac sleeps. It also spins down after a time if the Mac's Energy Saver preference "Put hard disk(s) to sleep when possible" is checked; otherwise it remains spun up until the Mac is put to sleep or switched off.
    It comes with "Turbo" USB & Memeo "AutoBackup" software, neither of which I installed. (The box didn't claim these extras came in a Mac version but both Mac & Windows versions were included on the CD.) Out-of-the-box, I reformatted the drive with the Apple Partition Map scheme & two partitions, a 160 GB one for cloning my internal drive & the rest for TM. The drive works perfectly for both uses & seems quite fast, as one would expect from a 7200 rpm SATA drive.

  • Mount options for ZFS filesystem on Solaris 10

    Do you know some recomendation
    about mount options for SAP on Oracle
    with data on ZFS filesystem?
    Also recomended block size required.
    We assume that file system with datafiles has 8kb block size
    and offline redologs has default (128kB).
    But what about ONLINE REDOLOGS?
    Best regards
    Andy

    SUN Czech installed new production HW for one Czech customer with ZFS filesystem on data-, redo- and archivelog files.
    Now we have performance problem and currently there is no SAP recomendation
    for ZFS file system.
    The HW which are by benchmark about tvice power has worst responses than
    old hardware.
    a) There is bug in Solaris 10 - ZFS buffers once allocated are not released
        (generally we do not want to use buffering due to prevence of double
         buffering)
    b) ZFS buffers takes about 20GB (32GB total) of memory on DB server
    and we are not able to define huge shared pool and db cache. (it may be possible
    to set special parameter in /etc/system to reduce maximum size of ZFS buffers to e.g. 4GB )
    c) We are looking for proven mount option for ZFS to enable asynchronious/concurent io for database filesystems
    d) There is no proven clear answer for support of ZFS/SOLARIS/Oracle/SAP.
    SAP says It is Oracle problem, Oracle does not certify filesystems from Jan2007
    any more and says ask your OS provider and SUN looks happy, but performance
    goes down and it is not so funny for system with 1TG DB with over 30GB grow
    per month.

  • HT3211 What is best track pad for laptop pro

    What is best track pad for Mac Pro laptop with mountain lion

    Honestly, the one right in front of your keyboard. It's hard to do better than that one, and the Magic Trackpad is just an external duplicate of that. In fact, my dad has one for his iMac, and I seem to recall that there are one or two things I can do with my built-in trackpad that he can't do with his Magic Trackpad... though my faulty memory means I couldn't tell you what those things are at this point.

  • Best color settings for document view?

    Thanks!

    Bridge is file browser with custom preview options, but it's not a pre-press examination application. Just don't use it for that purpose.
    P.S. First one is the best as far as I see. I don't like ruined «A» in second example. If you want to get more ballance, you can shift the left side also a bit.

  • Best export option for Sound Designer

    Hi everyone,
    I am working on a new short film and I am working with a Sound Designer and composer.  We want to create a 5.1 mix for the film (which I have never done before).  So I am trying to figure out what would be the best export option for him to work with to make his life easier.
    Providing him with just a ProRes export won't help him match up to my cuts in the time line since he doesn't use FCP X.  So my thought is that we will have matching files and folder structure for both video and audio before I start editing.  But what I am not understanding is once I have a complete rough cut, how do I get him a cut list so that he can totally match up my cuts with the same audio files on his system?
    Any advice?
    Thanks.

    See this pic for an example of how my exports turn out:
    http://www.brettmichaelwiesman.com/temp/qtexport.jpg
    First off, the titling style is not ideal for DV (or DVD). That is, your font should be a bit fatter (or, at least, bold) and perhaps 1-2 point sizes larger. (This is all because the DV codec makes titles look like s--t if the font size is small and narrow)
    Also, for your LiveType files, make sure FCP is interpreting your alpha channel correctly. For every LiveType file placed in your timeline, select it, then press Command-9 to bring up the Item Properties dialog. In the column for Alpha, make sure it says it says Black. If, for instance, it reads Straight, Control-click [right-click] on Straight, then select Black from the contextual menu. You should notice your text 'popping out' a little more. You'll have to re-render, of course.
    Also, in QuickTime Player, press Command-, (that's  + comma) to bring up QT's preferences. Make sure that the box for Use High Quality Video Setting when available is checked. (In order to get this working, it's probably best to set this, then restart QT - or close, then open, all movies). With the High Quality flag always used, your titling should always look better in QT player. (That is, there is no change made to your actual file, but at least when previewing, you'll get a better idea of things)
    After you've made these changes, export as you were (Current Settings) and let us know if you see any improvements.
