My house is a wood-frame house.  I have no access to put a WAP in the ceiling of the ground floor,.so my current plan is to install a EAP-610 in the basement under the room where access is desired.

 

Is the EAP-610 somewhat directional?  In other words, will devices on the floor above have WiFi, or should I mount the EAP-610 "upside down" in the basement ceiling?

Hi @SteveMann 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

EAP is omnidirectional but it is best to connect to its front side. So you can place whatever you wish but we only offer you the correct way to install it. Just the speed and signal may not be ideal when you use it beyond the proper installation we recommend.
