Suitable for campers, driving cars, etc.

I drove with my laptop and antenna to test it at some WiFi hotspots in the city. In places where I had to drive my car to a building to connect to Wi-Fi via the laptop's built-in antenna, I was able to park about 200 feet away and get a solid, usable connection. Apparently the internet connection is slower because I've fiddled with the antenna and checked to see if the laptop's built-in adapter is disabled, but it certainly does what it's supposed to. And of course my connections were better…

Pros
  • old people can also understand
Cons
  • frequency

Best value for money I've seen but not 20dBi

This is a 16 element PCB patch antenna. Better quality than I expected but not 20dBi. Theoretically, 16 elements result in 18 dBi. Considering the solder joints aren't the best, I'd say this antenna really works at 17-18 dBi. The best for the money I've seen. I've searched for them and haven't found a Declaration of Conformity (FCC) so I would guess they are trying to stay clear of the FCC by increasing the max power from 400mW to 316mW or (power plus 18dBi antenna) from 44 dBm down to 43 dBm…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Slightly dented

Replaced my 14 dbi what's the difference!

Good quick and easy to install. Keep in mind that no cable is included, so you must purchase a good quality cable. I use LMR 200 10 feet. I used this to replace my 14 DBI antenna which I got downhill 100 meters from Wi-Fi. There was a strong signal around 4 bars, sometimes 5, but the service was 20MB, reaching 2-7MB, and sometimes not. I use HDTV for streaming, so needless to say it didn't work very well at times. I installed it on the same mast and used a laser beam to direct the Wi-Fi signal…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Antenna Hella 2.4 GHz

This is a very powerful directional antenna with a gain of 20 dBi and an opening width of 18 degrees. I'm using a couple of these along with a couple of GL.iNet GL-AR150 radios, a USB power bank and a 10 watt USB solar charger to make a Wi-Fi solar repeater/bridge. A couple of these babies really resonate in the distance, if you get my meaning. It can project a strong Wi-Fi signal up to a quarter mile ahead. They are amazing - solid construction with a sturdy, adjustable bracket. Definitely…

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Piggy bank price

Powerful directional antenna boosts internet performance

I paired this with an Alfa AWUS036NH 2000mW 2W 802.11g/n High Gain USB Wireless G/N Long-Range WiFi Network Adapter for my mom who lives in rural Arizona and is on a small budget and can't afford cable or internet when it doubles. Luckily she has a neighbor to connect to the internet, but the signal was spotty at best. But now, with a Tupavco panel antenna and an Alfa adapter, she now has full signal strength and can even watch YouTube videos, which exceeded my expectations that her Facebook…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • May damage

Big! You still need a few items.

Small, light weight, easy to install. Really high gain --- I reach my university's local indoor hotspot at 600m with a signal level that (strangely) varies between -1 and -60dBm (usually around -40). But it was pretty reliable. If you use this to connect your LAN to a remote access point, you probably also need: Outdoor Access Point. This one is very, very good: Ubiquiti BULLET-M2-HP Outdoor 802.11 B/G/N M2HP, but it also requires a 15-24V PoE adapter (I have a 24V adapter, also from Ubiquiti…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors
