Me, and a few friends had a school project called "The City". It was about to improve the city. Our thought was that there wasn't good enough access to the internet in the city. What device does is from an access point, send signal to the dishes, which sends Wi-Fi signal, 360⁰ around the device. The signal range should be about 2 kilometers radius around the device.

  • This is just a ...

    This is just a suggestion......why not line the inside with aluminum foil, and put the actual dish more towards the base of the antenna, so that there is no signal being deflected back at the router. Good video though.

  • wifi has receiver ...

    wifi has receiver as a transmitter. satellite freq is high freq as the wifi - but only for open space. for closed u can use any uhf antenna.

    if u want to extend receive signal u can use satellite dish converter. connected it to 12V - connect converter f connector to wifi antenna - but u must enter one capacitor in serial - it protects your devices from dc current.

    -also u must fix a bit converter amplifier oscillator part as is created for higher freq's

  • i havnt tried to ...

    i havnt tried to mke it reach 6 km. the calculations shows that it reachs 2 km. the problem is, for an example if we take a guy with an iPhone. the iPhone's wifi modul might not be as powerfull, to SEND signals back to the dish. it can maybe recive, but i doubt it can send 6 km. but if a person got like a laptop with him, and he puts a wifi pen and build a dish around it, and point it at the location wehre the sender is, then it is possible to reach 6km and up.

  • Hmm not bad there's ...

    Hmm not bad there's a guy that got up to 6km with just one dish but he used a WiFi booster still nice to see that 360 degree model. Oh and by the way some people cannot get cable internet so people without one can just use those Dish signals for some.

    Yeah and I can leap tall buildings in a single bound..Did a 12 year old put this up here?

    Good thinking kid, but this isnt a good idea at all, it wouldnt work as Dish Wifi is some half assed half cocked S**t anyway.

    Are you like a retard? what you think this is used for?
    this is a device that can be used by like the state if tehy for an example want to support free WiFi internet to the people in the city or the area. if you put up a normale access point, it can probebly reach 20 meters max. with this device, it can deliver up 10 km. but you will only be able to reach 2 km sine ur laptop WiFi card or whatever you use to get the internet, wont be able to send longer distance.
