APs are optimized for a horizontal position; it means APs are fixed on the ceiling. Please place the AP outside the ceiling. If needs to put AP inside the ceiling, make sure the front of APs is facing to the service area (usually down). Remember to avoid the metal material for interference such as cable tray, ventilation pipe, etc.

To get the best Wi-fi performance, in case, it is inconvenient to fix APs on your ceiling, you can consult these models with dual-optimized antenna as WAC6103D-I, WAX510D, and WAX610D which can be fixed on the wall as well.
