Re: Distance / B vs. G vs. N / Adaptors
Most people are better off building a simple reflector. Follow the templates here:

This will give you a REAL and quite cheap gain through obstructions. Of if your router has removable antenna and you prefer pre-made solutions go to any computer store you will find a shelf full of panel antennas and other choices.
Buying pre-something routers is chasing the wrong end of things IMHO and proving to manufacturers that hype and marketing will convince end-users to spend more money on ever-more bizarre technical fixes.
For most users, most of the time, the "I can't get to the other end of my house" is an antenna selection problem, not a which-router-to-buy problem. |
