Malachai Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) Hello All, I have to say that I bought the ALFA USB WiFi AWUS036H a few weeks ago and just love it. The DVD came in handy a lot since I wanted to learn how wifi things work. After watching the DVD over and over. I notice Darren talked about getting a larger Antenna for the usb wifi adapter. Does anyone know where I could find this at? I looked around but couldn't find the right size plus I went to radio shack and bestbuy. Thanks, Edited December 18, 2011 by Malachai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95Blackz26 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 when i bought my alfa last year it came with a 5dbi and a 9dbi antenna. same antenna that came with my alfa. http://www.amazon.com/Alfa-Screw-Swivel-Antenna-Linksys/dp/B003RV4AYQ i've been using the 9dbi one and it does a good job picking up signals i wouldn't otherwise see.

What should I look for in the antenna? Sorry I'm new to all this. Would it be the bigger the more range is has? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much for the link. I will have to check it out. The higher the dbi is better range it will get ? is that how it works? Would this one work fine or should I go with the one you posted? http://www.amazon.com/10-dBi-2-4GHz-WIFI-Antenna/dp/B000SEQGT2/ref=pd_rhf_se_p_t_2 Edited December 19, 2011 by Malachai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
