high-gain extension

Archived from groups: (More info?)

What equipment do you need to extend 802.11g maybe a mile? I have a Belkin
Pre-N router and a Belkin Pre-N PC Card. I live in a typical suburban area.
Thanks for your help,

Ever notice that the antennas on the MIMO and Pre-802.11n hardware are
non-removeable? That's because their exact relative locations are
fairly important for re-assembling the multiple wavefronts used in
MIMO. To attach an external antenna would require *THREE* antennas
with roughly the same seperation and *THREE* coax cables. That's not
going to happen this week. If you only bring out one antenna, you
might as well toss the MIMO features and go back to more conventional
802.11g hardware.
