Wireless signals in this band are Line of sight. An antenna with some gain will put more rf in the direction you want. http://www.hyperlinktech.com/web/linksys_hg2424g_antkit.html

Hi all, I'm relatively new to the wi-fi scene, so if my question sounds stupid, I apoligise.... I have a cable-modem at home, but a friend of mine who lives just a couple of houses away, can't get it due to bad-cabling and stuff... So we set out to establish a wireless link between his and my house but there are some obstructions in the way; a brick house.... The signal is sometimes able to penetrate this building but the link-quality is always 0. Do you guys think if I use a Yagi antenna on both ends I will be able to get a stable link?? How many wavelengths should this yagi be? Or is it just impossible to penetrate a brick house with 802.11b ?? Both the AP and client-card are transmitting at 100mw (used to be 30, but that increase in power didn't seem to improve the signal) Thanx in advance, Grtzz from Wilbert (the Netherlands) -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
