Hi, im new to this forum and i have a question related to wireless penetration testing. I have a Alfa AWUS036NH Card and amped it to 33dBm and a Yagi-uno antenna with 25dBi of gain.. If i'm correct the EIRP calculation should result in 58 Watts / EIRP. So my question is how far would i get with this setup and another thing i live in a place where surrounded with a lot of houses does that mean that the walls, roofs etc block the signal and decrease the signal so i get less further than when (i.e on top of a building.)

So I have a customer who is looking to get a Wireless Security system for his office that uses a cell phone SIM card to communicate. I advised him that I would not go wireless when it comes to securing my business. I would think these could be jammed pretty easily with cell phone jammers, is this true?
