If stopped living in Google and forums of people who are out of their depths, go and learn it then you would know to stop claiming what antenna gains are best and start working on what designs are best as well as how to use them. Trust me when I (I know you won't) say that the PA will smoke long before it.

If you beleive it, it will claim 250mW at full bore. Just a little inside tip for you, DD-WRT has been well known for years being very crappy of the claimed power/signal levels for years. Maybe if you used antennas tuned for the frequency rather than random lengths or unmatched set-ups then you would see less need to jack power and risk cooking the PA stage with high VSWR. As for a few KM away, LOL, try over 350KM on non-amped domestic gear, You won't see any shitty catennas. signal would have improved.įocussing RF is another word for Gain. If the reflector was working for you they way it is supposed to, the Rx. end even though you haven't gained any signal at the Rx., just a lower noise at time of the snap-shot. I would suggest you move out of you home and into the real world of RF (radio) and see the errors of your statements, then also see that you are arguing with images of you getting a lower noise floor at the Rx. This would be possible with reflected RF (2.4GHz reflects well off hard surfaces) and the devices doing what they are supposed to and that is MIMO although, the routers in question are on the basic side with only either single/dual radios rather than the triple required for full and true wireless N MIMO. Not saying it won't/doesn't work, just saying that at that range, you should have a connection without aids. The other gains that maybe being seen are most likely from running a tweaked firmware. Your strips of copper need to run vertical and be moved a little further away from the antenna. Now you also need to ensure the reflector is the same size (vertical length/height in your case) as the antenna itself. Now to get a true reflector working at best, you need to have the antenna half-wave in-front of the driven antenna. I feel someone has a little more of the placebo effect and I shall briefly explain Īssuming that you are only using the 2.4GHz spectrum (it's all the RT-N12 does), the wavelength for this is about 125mm. So if you have Wi-Fi signal issues try this out, it really works, seriously.I have some serious doubts on the true performance gains. By using lengthy cables I can get the Wi-Fi antenna booster positioned pointing towards the passage area which could result in 90% + signal strength. I do not have lengthy cables and even with the antenna booster I have to position it such that the signal bounces off the wall into the passage area. The antenna booster worked amazingly well I am now getting an almost stable signal of 75% to 85%, the net is quite fast and interestingly even after closing the door I get a signal of 60% + with the net still working.

And because of the fluctuations the net connection was extremely slow and would occasionally die out. Check this video on how to make your own Wi-Fi Antenna Booster.īy simply positioning the MTNL Wi-Fi modem and using extended cable for the wireless USB Wi-Fi adapter I was able to get signal strength of max 75% which would keep fluctuation between 0 to 75%. homemade wi-fi antenna boosterĪll you need is a soft cardboard, glue, scissor, aluminium foil and layout ( click here). I then searched the net for ways to improve the Wi-Fi antenna range and found a solution. I went shopping for another Wi-Fi router with repeater function but thankfully the shop did not have one. I could not access the internet from my desktop, but by position the Wi-Fi modem and the D-Link N Nano USB Wireless adapter I managed to get about 75% signal, but the signal was very unstable and occasionally would dropped to zero. If you look at the image below it will give you an idea where my Wi-Fi modem and Desktop is located. I have subscribed to MTNL Xpress broadband service with Wi-Fi modem. In most cases the router is placed near the walls this hindrance weakens the signal and you will find it difficult to reach it when accessing from another room. Ideally the antenna will spread the signal in a circular pattern and you need to be in range to access the router. The idea is to focus the router signal where you want it. If you are using a Wi-Fi connection at home or office and you are not getting good signal because of low Wi-Fi range or obstacles, you got to read this – a simple and effective way of boosting the Wi-Fi antenna signal / range.
