    Keep it at a higher plane ( height) with clear "line of sight"
    for wifi signals to radiate.Hanging in the wall will attenuate( reduce)the signals.

    wait...
    see the patterns.

    If the antenna is detachable an external "DISH" type antenna can be connected to Increase Range in wanted direction.
