for a Z-net... not sure where the antenna is.... does it matter the orientation? was thinking of using the side mounting holes and mounting up on a wall in my wiring closet.

My configuration:

This is how the znet's z-wave board on port 2001 works too.

EDIT: The earliest versions of the Z-Net were based on a Pi 2 board, which required a USB dongle for WiFi. Later models used the Pi 3 with built in WiFi.HS4 Pro, 4.2.19.16 Windows 10 pro, Supermicro LP Xeon

In the frequency range that ZWave operates in, and the type of emission, orientation does matter. Based on the previous post, the designers tried to make it sort of work in either orientation, but my suspicion is that it will work better in one orientation over the other. Without actual testing, we cannot know how much difference it makes, though.

Obstacles and controller placement are much more important than orientation.HS4 Pro, 4.2.19.16 Windows 10 pro, Supermicro LP Xeon
