![]() The reason i went in this direction is because the router is currently at the closest position to the garage from within the house (the garage is separate from the house). I thought that it was the purpose of the product and not only amplify the receiving end. I thought that since the booster is 8 Watts, it will amplify the wifi signal even further, and increase it's range. The last resort option would be to place a repeater half way between and live with degradation in speed a repeater causes. You could also use a AP that has a built in directional antenna like engenius ENS200 ![]() The next option is to use a AP place closer to the garage but connected to the main router via ethernet. I would look into using power line networks to extend the network into the garage. This would mean that you may be able to let a remote PC connect but your close PC then lose the ability to run the high speed options used by the multi antenna solutions. If you were to connect something else to one you would in effect remove it from the router. Almost all modern routers use MiMO and other feature that are dependent on the simultaneous use of multiple antennas. Most this antenna modification stuff is all old news. I would just buy a commercial one then you know you really get the rated gain. Be very careful there are devices you can buy that are not legal look for FCC id numbers to be sure it is a legal device.Ī home made direction antenna is hard to say. If your PC did not transmit at the maximum then I suppose it might help on that end. Most routers already transmit at the legal maximum power so if you connected it to the router it would in effect do nothing. I am not sure how you would gain anything from a wifi amplifier.
