WiFi Antenna Mod!

This thing killed my internet...
I'm typing this at a library.
THANKS.

nice i get it free to my friends a electrician and i work with him sometimes.

the wire is cheap if you work for an electric motor factory.

OK i don't think the wire he is using is good.
the wire u need is wire like Indore home wiring. it is the same thickness as the long antenna. its expensive and u have to get 50 feet or it at home depot. so if u have a construction site going on around you go there and ask for about a foot of it. ask for the grounding wire because it doesn't have any insulation on it or u will have to strip it.(burn it off) do the same thing he did but get this kind of wire or even a little smaller.

nice video thank you itc copper inside it cost 1500 usd a tonne that why they cost much this antenna wont give you too much you need an antenna like mine 270 km long range distance

where can i get copper wire?

No you can't.

could you do this to extend it indefinitely ? like a meter or so ?

It works on a principle of a colinear antenna. The coil forms part of the aerial and acts by putting the top element out of phase with the bottom. The whole aerial needs to be the correct length before any phasing coils or loading coils are added. They must also be matched for a 50ohm impedance at the base or they will be less effective than the original - as this one is!

I just tried it out using the same DLINK aerial! I found that in a poor reception area it give 2 bars and 18Mbps. With the original router aerial it give 4 bars and 54Mbps. So this doesn't seem to work, it effectively reduces the signal because the impedance is not matched to 50ohms correctly. This causes a high VSWR and makes the router warm up and cut out. You need to look closer at the high gain design to see the matching arrangement.

diminishing returns.... i dont understand it but um pretty sure thats why

sooo will this work with a Xbox 360 Wireless Wifi ? ? because the antenna is short will it make my connection stronger ?

it doesnt work ive have gave it ago but fucked it up my wireless so i wouldnt try it....

i saw this a long time ago on metacafe

greattttttttt workkkkkkk
