It does work!!! This antenna does work. It's all in the way you position it. It's design leaves a little to be desired but, if you position it just right, it works. I connected the antenna to my router, ran the cable under my scanner and up through the back so the antenna sits on top of the scanner. My signal went from "Low" and "Very Low" to "Very Good" on both my wireless N equipped PC and Laptop. Considering the router is on the other side of my apartment in my bedroom; some 60 feet away with a wall in ...

Works well, but not great I bought this antenna hoping it would drastically improve performance, but only got another bar of signal strength.

it works.... a little bit better. diffenently get a little better signal but not by much. the cable is about 5 feet too short to really be useful (its only about 3 feet long) and position the antenna in the optimal spot for improved signal receiption.

Made the difference I used this antenna to move WiFi transmission beyond a plaster wall and away from some other electronics. That seemed to make all the difference - I tested two spots where I previously had trouble and there are no dropouts and faster transmission.

In case anyone else is wondering... Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: The extension cable on this antenna unit is about 1 meter (~40 inches) long, and is hard-wired into the antenna base. I could not find this information anywhere (even on the box) and bought it anyway. Works great, good quality connectors.
I did some research through suppliers we use at work and just buying three 1-meter SMA-connector extension cables would have cost significantly mo...

Works Great Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: It does what it's suppose to do. It increased the quality of the signal significantly.
Cons: short wire
Other Thoughts: If your wireless software detects a high signal, but low performance surfing or networking then the quality fo the signal is not good. That's why I bought it, had 86% signal but could b...

Simple and Effective! Tech Level: somewhat low
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Ridiculously easy to install.
Immediate, positive results
I went from 1 bar to 4
The cables are long enough to attach your new antenna to your wireless device and place it in a much better (usually 'higher') location for substantially improved reception.
Cons: none really, but the nine page 'manual' make...

Improves performance Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I have my computer under a desk and used to get between 50-60% strength of signal. I bought this and signal strength now hovers around 90%. I am only about 30 feet from the router but its also an old building probably with loads of lead paint on the wall. Signal strength is much improved and was worth the purchase.
Cons: The cord len...

Pros: I bought 3 of these in an attempt to fix a severe connection problem with my sons' wi-fi desktops downstairs. They were getting a 15 to 20% signal quality with the stock antennas. distance from router to desktop is about 75 feet with 3 walls in between. They were constantly losing connection while gaming online. Once I installed these antennas, their signa...
