I'm looking to send a signal 65' into my garage from an AirPort Extreme to an airport express. What do I need to do this? A steel building will block the signal. Can I hook this to a smart tv to get signal from house about ' away? You will need a router or an Extender device to take the antenna signal and put it on an Ethernet cable or rebroadcast it via WiFi. I am going about feet. You might need a better transmitting antenna hooked to the router at the house , in order to get a good signal.
If you put one of these antennas at each end and pointed them at each other, that would probably work real well. Particularly if there is nothing in-between them. I am using a Netgear AC as an extender. Ok I have wifi inside the house but not inside my metal 60x shop thats roughly yards away will I be able to pick up wifi off of my house signal? Two things with the above problem.
Your first issue is you will have to extend your wireless network to the edge of your barn. This may mean either adding a repeater with a directional antenna or placing your Wireless router by a window facing your shop. Secondly, you will need to place your Yagi outside of your building facing the house. I would suggest at minimum purchasing two and pointing them at each other, both mounted externally and grounded correctly.
Lastly, you will need an extension cable that goes from N types to SMA type, these style antennas have a cell tower grade connector and most home wireless equipment uses a smaller SMA type connector. Either type of SMA cable type will work. You do not have an external antenna connection on the device.
You may be able to use it at the router end if you have the appropriate adapters and an external router antenna connection.
I want to connect to a lynksys wrt54gl. Will the cable work or do I need to order something cable different? What max dbm power i can use with this antenna to be with limist of fcc? Is the 21dbm level an input to the antenna or an output of the antenna?
The risks are RF interfering with others, or tissue damage to humans standing next to the antenna when transmitting. Also dbm is dependent on where it is measured, like right next to the antenna or say feet away. Does this antenna need a balun impedance matching transformer between the antenna and the input cable to a wifi extender?
All depends on the location its placed. I bought 2 of these and have one on top of my house and one about yards away on my barn and full bars with my internet connection with no drop outs. Took 2 ppl to get the antennas placed correctly. Depends on what kind of port you have on the back of your laptop.
You have to have a laptop that has some kind of cable connection to use this, or you can buy a USB wifi dongle that has a detachable antenna and replace it with this. I recommend mounting it on the roof or as high up as you can; the less dense matter between you and the wifi signal the better off you'll be. After that, the two things that matter the most are your distance from the access point and the strength of the signal. Make sure you know where the wifi source is located and point the antenna appropriately.
I have a netgear nighthawk router with four external antennas. Can I connect this antenna to one of my router's external antennas and still work well?
Yes, but you will have to research on your router and you may need an additional connector to make it work. In general it is a bad idea to try to go through metal with any wireless signal.
Essentially metal acts as a mirror to radio frequencies. If you can place this in a window and what you are aiming toward is facing that direction it can work. If you intend on aiming at a metal wall you will be disappointed. The best plan is to use LMR cable and place the antenna on the roof aimed directly at the device you wish to communicate with.
I'm using a Apple imac. Will it work with OSX This is just a wireless antenna which can be used to extend range of wireless signal. It has no software. I need to shoot a wifi signal about 2 miles, will this be able to do that? Big answer is "depends. If you had a high wattage station, then it may be possible. I use this between two homes right next to each other standard city lots. Speed is also maxed out as well on both the AP and bridge. I used a cheap TP Link bridge to "bridge" the internet connection between the homes.
In short, the antenna is only one part of the equation. Yes if you have proper base stations, no if you use standard off the shelf gear. Good news is the antenna is reported to be able to handle high wattage output. You can if your looking to extend your wireless range in a certain direction. If your trying to amplify just for general use around home, you may want to look at omni directional antenna. TP appears to be longer and higher gain.
How or what connectors do I need to set this up and connect this to my laptop in order to connect to a hotspot down the street? Laptop connects by WIFI to your Router, Antenna connects to router, need Two Antenna one on your end and one on the other end,they must be able to"See" each other without obstructions in between.
I have a 2. That depends on a lot of variables. For best results us low loss cable as short as possible. Make sure you have line of sight with no obstructions, no walls, trees, hills, etc. With properly aimed Yagi antennas on both ends and no interference you may get as far as a M. Putting this in my garage with weak signal, approx 60' from the house and router. What do I need to hook this up to an old WRT 54g router?
I assume the 54g is in the house and you are trying to get the signal to a laptop. Buy this if this is the case Alfa mW 1W Great long range adapter. If you are trying to get the signal to run a tablet or phone, buy a new router. The wrt is not the strongest on signal output. I would like to extend my signal from main unit for the wireless security cameras, can this atenna help or which one is best. It will work but you will have to connect it to the antenna output on your router.
It does come with two U-bolts which can be used with the attached plate for pole mounting. I would have to bouble check, but I believe the plate can be reattached as well to allow for horizontal or vertical polarization.
Thats what I'm doing, my router has three antenas, hooking the yagi in place of one of the antenas to make a building to building network. Can you attach an extension cable at the antenna's driven element or must you use the pigtail? It will receive as well as transmit.
