http://www.rainbowkits.com/wifiAnt.htmlI just bought one today, and I will post an update on how well it works. The other ones I've looked for on the internet are proprietary setups, and require certain cables, and or connectivity requirements, and some of them are not compatible with the B class, and G class bands. Many of them are router direct repeaters.
Once I get it, and if it works, I will try to disassemble it, to try and see if I can add a power assisted RF source, and maybe assemble a whole new antennae unit, to pick up even more signals, and possibly compile them into a bridge for a mega-speed connection. Who knows, it might work.
I hear Netgear uses 7 various antennas to keep signals from attenuation. The reason why I am researching this, is because I'm thinking of making a few bucks if I can find a way to expand a a wireless signal by localizing and repeating a series of Wireless G, and B and the future N bands and consolidate them for not only a guaranteed wifi connection, but to find a way to use them in conjunction to boost wireless speed, by bridging them into one connection. Imagine also boosting Bluetooth capibilties, and cell phone signal strength utilizing this technology as well.
My dad is a communications specialist, and he's pretty good at amplifying various frequencies, and we may put together a project to create an awesome signal to pick up wifi from almost anywhere, at, an incredible speed. Of course these receivers can only pick up at speeds which they are designed for, but with the new N band that Netgear is talking about, we may increase connection speeds past the typical 54 (or less) mbps band rate limit.
Imagine never having to pay for the costs of high speed internet ever again. I know in some places High speed cable internet is cheap, but where I live it costs 70 bucks a month, and has been since 1998.
