Description: This document explains how to align antennas for P2P mode by using the 'Adjusting point-to-point WLAN antennas…" program in LANmonitor.Requirements:Procedure: The precise alignment of the antennas is of considerable importance in establishing a P2P path. The more central the receiving antenna is located in the "ideal line" of the transmitting antenna, the higher is the actual power and the effective bandwidth. If the receiving antenna is outside of this ideal area, however, significant losses in performance will be the result. Two methods are available to ensure the best possible alignment of the antennas:- In LANmonitor the real-time signal strength over the P2P connection is displayed.
- Right-clicking with the mouse on 'Point-to-point' in the LANmonitor context menu activates the option 'Adjusting Point-to-Point WLAN Antennas...'. A new window opens up that displays the signal strength of the link.
