Re: Owner Wireless Antenna Pictures

Does it really work just by sitting a pie tin behind it like that though?!? Is it really that simple? Or did you haft to do something to it?

Im sure it really works that simply. The modem is already tuned to the frequency it wants to pick up. All the pie tin does is serve as a reflector to collect extra signal.

Just like a soup or coffee can with the correct parts can provide just as big of a gain. May seem funny- but thats just the simplicity of an antenna.
