In garden @ sunny JM Towers ....... But only got this



If I buy a looooong flex & put a out door antenna conected to my poxy freebie Netgear router, will that up my range a bit...... Or will I loose all that RF goodness in the wire ?

My house is like a farraday cage unfortunately, portable radios don't work, forget even trying Portable TV's

On the brighter side, should you happen by & drop some light ordanance on the place you might break a roof tile if your lucky. But please don't as they are hand made were & out of production long ago (See secret stash in JM's garage)

Move this to another forum so we get post credit for actually helping somebody out for a change, geez.

Depending on the Netgear model you could go with DDWRT or Tomato and crank up the Xmit power considerable-like, that might solve your problem and it's free.

Someday when you have the time, teach yourself how to search this forum.

DDWRT
Tomato (just in case you buy a real router someday)

Its not that long ago I had lots of Linksys separates .... Modem/Router/WAP/Printer Server .......... Then I went cable and sold all the rest of that stuff off, as I got new carp ........... I flog unused PC hardware asap due to its fall off a cliff depreciation

I'll read up on range boostage ...... I can't see me getting too far with this Netgear POS tho

Don't let that stop ya, this should make for some pretty entertaining reading while you brick a working router.
