I use it as an extender from my router near my computer. The extender is 3 rooms away and with both gives me coverage on 3 floors including the basement of my large house. I am happy with it, but next time would probably buy a more powerful one (more $$$ of course).

You can use the antenna on your router, most likely. The full USB+Antenna unit is for a computer though, and has fantastic range.

If the antenna TEW-L412 is compatible with the modem (which I don't know), you just need to remove (unscrew) the standard antenna and connect the new cable and antenna to the old antenna connector. Mount the new antenna vertically.

Sorry, I am not familiar with your router. Mine is a CP-LINK. Suggest you check manual for available port connections on your rotor, then see if it complies with the 5M antenna cable. Also, search Yoomall web site, and call them for advise.

When you set up the router you should have to "name" each band. Once it starts broadcasting you can see both. Just pick the one you want.

Jose, this will connect if your router has RP-SMA connectors. This will make the signal directional in the direction of your wifi radio compared to the router omni antennaes. hope this helps.Ron

I agree with everything George said. There's a lot of device setup you need to do before it'll work, and you want to do your setup in one room and make sure it's all good before moving the antennas into the final position. And definitely call their tech support. They were very helpful.

You are required to use an external antenna that you qill directly screw to the routeur

Many routers have an existing antennae in which is to be replaced by this one. If your router doesn't have an antennae then you can't use this booster. This booster did not work for me

This antenna replaces one of your routers existing antenna. Results will likely very but the simple answer is that as along as your router has an antenna that unscrews then this will work by screwing its cable in that place.

If your existing cable modem/router uses an external antenna (antenna screwed on/protruding from the exterior of the unit) with an SMA connector you can then unscrew the existing antenna and connect the Amped antenna's SMA cable connector in it's place. Plug the AC power adapter for the Amped antenna into an outlet and your good to go.

The Hawking antenna has what's called an N type connector on it; if I recall correctly, the end on the antenna's pigtail is a female N. I used a 20-foot-ling Hawking HAC20N cable for my installation; this comes with a male N on one end and a female N on the other. Amazon also sells the HAC10N (10 ft.) and HAC30N (30 ft.). For best results, use the shortest cable that will connect the antenna to your router; the longer the cable, the more signal loss there will be due to inherent and unavoidable electrical resistance. You will also need an adapter to connect the cable to one of the antenna connectors on your router. On my desktop's wireless adapter, and *probably* on your router too (but verify this first before buying an adapter), this is a much smaller connector confusingly called a "reverse female SMA". Since my recollection of the "gender" of the N connector on the pigtail is possibly faulty, and since I don't care to climb the outside building wall again for another look, I suggest receiving the antenna and cable first. Put them together, note the "gender" of the leftover end, and search online for an appropriate adapter to fit both that end and your router's reverse female SMS connector. This will help prevent ordering the wrong kind of adapter, which is easy to do. Once received, this adapter, only two inches or so long, simply threads on. Your router has three separate stick antennas, one for each bandwidth used; choose one, unscrew the stick, and thread on the adapter. You may wish to try the cable for a while on each of the three router connectors to find which gives you the best overall performance.

u need to have the correct t-slot insert in your router table, and it needs to b the right distance from the center of the router. u can order the t-slot from kreg, and mount it yourself.

yes you can. I did it myself, Also used a dish directional and a 18dbi omnidirectional. works perfect and i was able to get my home wifi from 2 miles away.

Yes, if your daughter's router (or as others have said, wifi adapter) has removable antennas with reverse polarity SMA connectors (the small SMA connectors) on it. OR, you could connect the antenna to your router. As has been said below, the antenna must point right at the other house.

I don't think you can connect the antenna to this modem, because this type of modem does not have the antena you can replace. For what I know the antenna is inside your modem.

Not familiar with our router, however, it is nothing more than an antenna. It is designed to plug into wireless cellular WI-Fi, which I use or into an adapter which connects to your cell phone. If the connection will match your situation, the antenna will give you an improvement over having no antenna.
