Syd Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 This thing works VERY well indeed, does what it says on the tin http://www.dabs.com/products/hawking-hi-gain-usb-wireless-g-dish-adapter-40HM.html#imagegallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spospe Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Syd, I am sure that this could be of use to some folk, but note that it only works on "b" and "g" Wi-Fi. If you have a newer "n" setup, it will not work at all and would probably be unnecessary anyway, due to the greater range and power output of "n". A simple and very cheap alternative is to make a parabolic reflector for your existing Wi-Fi aerial out of a takeaway carton lid or similar. I have done this and it works well, see: http://binarywolf.com/249/diy-parabolic-reflector.htm for full details of the one that I made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
