According to the radiation charts, the signal will be strongest in the front and sides of the AP, with a significant dead zone on the back side. If they're going on exterior walls pointing toward the interior of the house, you should be good.



Turns out the 4th in wall AP that I didn't really need to be an in wall wouldn't power on so I'm swapping that out for a AP lite that will hopefully catch most of the middle of the house.

I have had a UAP for a while, and it basically covered the whole house except the signal was spotty in one particular corner (in the small part of L-shaped house). Also I just had a generator w/wifi installed, and the signal was just too weak on that edge through the bricks.

So I picked up an AP AC Lite, moved the old UAP to one end and the AC to the other. The place I want to mount it has cramped attic access, so the unit is currently just sitting up in the attic on top of insulation (facing down) while I'm testing the coverage. The coverage is so good I might just leave it like that in the attic. I don't really feel like army-crawling over insulation.
