vezwoarang Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 hmmm heres the problem. me and my brother used to be on a lan using a wireless router but it kept getting dropouts coz our comps where too far. now we dont even use it no more coz the dropouts where a real p*** off and we just couldnt take it anymore. i was wondering if we could use an antenna extension? we have a <a href = "http://www.netgear.com/products/details/WGT634U.php">108 netgear wireless media router wgt634u.</a> ive seen quite a few antenna extension cables around but wasnt sure if it would work on our router or not. would any type of antenna extension cable work? or do i have to use one thats specially made for netgear's wgt634u? it be great if someone could give a link to pics/info of then cable too please
gamehead200 Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 108Mbps wireless routers are really meant for streaming media across a network... And I HIGHLY doubt that you would have a 108Mbps internet connection. I was discussing this with two of my friends yesterday. If you do indeed end up buying this kind of router, I believe it comes with 54Mbps enabled and 108Mbps... It is better to leave it this way.As for the type of Antenna Extension, there are a number of antennas for different routers... But in the end, you're better off buying another router to fill in the blind spots (like I did) since the antennas are the same price! I suggest the WRT54G router... You can put hacked firmware on it so you can Telnet into it, raise your antenna strength, and other sweet stuff!
vezwoarang Posted February 2, 2005 Author Posted February 2, 2005 thnx for the reply. nope we dont have a 108Mbps internet connection, currently using wireless 1024/256. we'll probably get another router then if we cant find any antenna extensions for our current router.
