Default (OT) WiFi Antenna.

This morning I plugged in my phone and I phoned that toll free number 1
800 647 1800 at www.MFJEnterprises.com

Today makes exactly three weeks since I ordered my MFJ Wide Angle High
Gain Antenna.The lady on the phone said I can expect my Antenna to show
up here in about a week to ten days.

Oh well, I am not in a hurry anyway.I don't know what I will do with the
Antenna when it does get here.

You've been waiting 3 weeks in that free market of us, and that's hell of a
long time. You'd better not had a free will to order it ... ;-)

Why would you buy a WiFi antenna from MFJ? It's one of the few things
they sell that they don't manufacture.

I much prefer to spend my money here in Mississippi whenever I can, for
thingys I buy.I will not cancel my MFJ WiFi Antenna order.Heh,
yesterday, from www.si87.com (in Bozeman,Montana,,, I lived in
Bozeman,Montana for about six or seven months in 1956.The guy on the
phone at si87.com said he was born in Jackson,Michigan) I ordered an
adapter thingy for my computer monitor.I love Montana, but it gets a
little too coolish in the Winter time in Montana to suit this auld
Southern boy.

Antenna has an N connecter, hub has one of those tiny coax connectors.

Good luck with that.


I stand corrected. The $10 beef stew can antenna is much better.

I use it to shoot my network signal over to my neighbor's house. We
split the DSL bill. Signal is 'okay' with a Dr. Bott antenna, but this
should do even better. I've also seen homemade directional WiFi
antennas using a tin can, but I'm lazy!
A corner reflector / Yagi type would be a good distance antenna. Very
directional with good gain depending on the number of elements with a
simple match to a driver dipole element. Most just use a one element
reflector so you lose off the back end.

I suggest a $10 Pringles Can Antenna.

I've read that Pringles cans were recently changed and will no longer
perform well for WiFi antennas..


There's some confusion, to be sure. I think you're supposed to use the
short Pringles can, not the full size one.
