My PC only has 2 antenna...which of the 3 spots on this should I plug them into? Or is the 3rd required/suggested?

You can get by with using the 0 and 1 antenna leaving the 2 open or you could order a 3rd antenna and put it in where ever you can I stuck one in the base under the keyboard. I never used mine with just 2 but honestly I'm done with Intel wireless cards both of the ones I bought had issues. I would go for a atheros one instead.

Each antenna services one radio. Leaving a radio unconnected will affect connection speeds. You haven't told us the speed or part number of the unit you are replacing, so I can't tell if it is a Bluetooth/Wi-Fi combo card. One of the antennae may be for Bluetooth and won't work well for 5GHz. If you are replacing a single-band card, 5GHz may not work well w/ your old antennae. If you old unit was 300Mb/Sec, Intel B00HUIJ4H0 is a 300Mb/Sec adapter w/ 2 antennae. Omitting an antenna on 633ANHMW will insure you cannot achieve 450Mb/Sec. 3 radios are required. The 2 antenna unit is 1/3 the price, so use it if you cannot mod your case to take 3 antennae. Each antenna services one radio. Leaving a radio unconnected will affect connection speeds.

Use the 2 outside connections. It doesn't matter which antenna you plug into each of the connections.

Whatever number they were connected to on the old one, put them here. The third one is not required. Some computers have a different antenna position where it is a triangle, and that's where all three are needed. With 2 antenna wires, you should connect them to the same numbers as they were. If you don't know, or can't remember, connect them to #1 and #2. It really shouldn't make any difference at all really between 1 and 2.

A quick look at that shows it has 4 antennas, and this pack has 3. If I recall correctly when researching new antennas I found other 9db's in a 2-pack; maybe get two of those? Beyond that, it looks like it has the correct connector type, but I can't confirm. One thing I did find was that Linksys plans to introduce an optional high-gain upgrade set sometime this summer. Sorry I wasn't more helpful.

I have used my Crane Super USB antenna for a bit over a year; absolutely NO complaints using the single antenna, with dual USB connections on a laptop. As I said, I do connect using the 15-foot extension cable; makes antenna placement much easier. I agree with the comment below regards two antennas, but will readily admit that I'm NOT a techie; just a satisfied user. I put this product in the increasingly rare category of "works-as-advertised". Good luck with it, and post your results!

I already had an antenna hookup that I used with the Killer 1202. For laptops, you should use the antennas already installed. I'm guessing the Tyco antennas are frequently bought with the Killer card by desktop owners (I have a custom desktop rig and bought a pair of antennas with an Intel wifi card which didn't work, which is why I bought the Killer 1202 separately).

Hi Lynette, Yes, you do need two of them (in any case)....and if you buy this particular antenna...then yes, you need the 2 adapters. I returned this one & just bought another with the correct connector (RP-TNC for your WAP54G) to begin with (for the same price). Good Luck!

You will need to buy one separate... not included the antenna... I suggest the follow one Dual MAR16W Marine Flexible Mast AM/FM Antenna White

3 separate pc's concurrently. Remember if you are recording a show and watching another you are using 2 tuners. Make sure all tuners are programmed correctly as well. I went a year without being able to use one until I discovered I had one of my tuners configured for HD air antenna source and not cable tv.

You can use or two. I used two for two additional locations. Ended up sending everything back though. My cable is too old and has too much inteferance for really high speeds. My wifi did better.

You don't have to connect all three. In my setup I only have two connected to the card and I just wrapped 3rd wire in electic tape and tucked it away. It's good to have 3 antennas though for future proofing (newer cards usually have three connectors)

You need the amp as close to the antenna as possible. In my case it is just a 3' cable from the antenna with the amp mounted on the mast holding the antenna to the roof. You are losing signal strength with every foot of cable from the antenna to the amp so you want it to be as short as possible. The power supply on the other hand can go anywhere. Typically it is near the TV or the distribution point for the rest of the TVs in the house. The power supply can be in the attic if you have 120VAC outlet to plug it in there or it can be in you basement or living room.

The three antennas are included, do make sure that you attach them per the install instructions.p or they will not work optimally.

Yes you will need also antenna adapter. The adapter comes with a cable that needs to be connected to power if i remember correctly. Otherwise channel recception will be poor. Check your instructions.

Thanks for the feedback Frank, I appreciate it.So in theory, the monitor should be able to get OTA signals, but possibly due to weak signal reach, it won't, hence the need for an antenna... Makes sense.

Each time you 'split' a signal there will be some loss of quality. With that being said, you could pick up a splitter at radio shack (one in and 3 out) and 3 coax cables and try it. My suggestion would be that since the location and direction of these antenna is very important you should consider at least 2 antenna, splitting off of the one (1 in and 2 out) with the best location and signal and have one antenna that you don't split, perhaps to your most watched TV.

Two things. The broad face of the antenna "black rounded side" needs to point in the direction of the transmitters. Second point, this antenna is only UHF. You should look to pair with the ClearStream5 which is VHF. Connect both antenna to a signal combiner using the same length of cable....saw 4' for each to avoid ghosting. From the signal combiner, pass through a good preamp if needed, then on to your TV's. You'll know if you need an amp based on the signal strength indicator shown on newer TV's. Another way to know is that the picture is blocky and pixelated. I think in total I spent $280 for the two antenna...two mounting poles, cables and preamp. Cutting cable saved me $1400 the first year alone, so well worth the investment to do it right the first time.

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.

No need . any suggestion just waist time. I did five time different computer to monitor. it's no work. so I have go to radio shake shop buy another adaptor . then work down . tks
