I have an Actiontec Model #: MI424WR. I bought the TEW-L412 cable + this antenna. Can someone advise on how these connect?

they don't connect without an adapter (referred to often as a 'pigtail' adapter cable. problem is, i don't know if your wifi access point/router has removable antenna/s. if it does, and if (usually) the connector is a mini SMA connector then you could use this: http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-ANT24PT-RP-SMA-Pigtail-Cable/dp/B003U6825G/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1374506928&sr=8-3&keywords=pigtail+connector or, if you have a connector on the access point called RP TNC then you'd use a connector cable like this: http://www.amazon.com/RP-TNC-Plug-N-Male-200-Assembly/dp/B002LYUYYK/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1374507103&sr=1-2&keywords=pigtail+connector+rp+tnc keep in mind, every time you use an adapter of some sort you lose 1db. every 30' of cheaper cable you use you're gonna lose at least 1/2db or more so use the thickest/highest-quality cable you can if you will be putting the antenna 30'+ away from the access point....ESPECIALLY if going 60' or more. Otherwise your antenna loses a lot of efficiency. Also, remember to elevate the antenna reasonably....more than 6' off the ground if only focused on a limited area (say, 1/4 acre), maybe 15' high if your tryiing to cover about 1 acre. a lot depends on what structures are on the property and what materials things are made of. be wary of metal clad buildings such as aluminum covered barns, chain link fences, etc. penetration in those cases is iffy at best. good luck!!

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.

Should work fine still, you just will not hook up anything to the third antenna connection(typically grey). You should have a white and black antenna cable though, use both of these. Your range may be reduced though and link rate may be reduced do to decreased stream capacity, because you won't have the grey(MIMO antenna).

It says A.M. & FM external antenna connectors. I don't really know what they are for, but they're there. Hope this helps. By the way what are they for?

There is a menu setting that gives you a choice between "air/cable," so it seems that there is an input for antenna. I saw nothing on the back that was separate from the cable connection, but I think that the same connection is used for both antenna or cable.

In my application I was using it with a cc witness plus. The witness plus is not setup to connect an external am antenna. I simply placed the antenna next to the radio and rotated it until I got good am reception. Trust me it will work without a wired connection. Hope this helps

There is a connection at the antenna called a BALON I think. It convertes the 300 ohm from the antenna to 75 ohm. Then you can use a RG-6 coax cable from there. I did find that the transformer on the antenna didn't work. I put an external one on and it worked ok. Hope this helps you.

There are two different Sat antenna connectors. I am not 100% sure this will connect but I am almost that certain. If it will connect it will work.

It should definetely work with your receiver. I have the same receiver. Should have a USB port in the front and a couple in the back. I've connected my ota to the rear then you have to press menu on the remote. Then click diagnostics. Then click over the air locals. You can then scan for channels and save. They should automatically appear in the guide in yellow.Doug

U probably need a large 34 db ppt antenna...that is a long distance to work with with m2

Not sure but they have a really helpful customer service that can answer that for you. Contact Actiontec on the internet or toll free number. I have had my unit for years and it is still working wonderfully. Easy hookup. Have not had any problems. Best price was on Amazon

What you need is one with a male to female. If your antenna had a RP-SMA cable to it just connect that to your extension you purchased. Other wise you will need an RP-SMA extension that has male to female one end and female to male the other end. Hope this was helpful.

I initially had the same issue as McKinney, but called my ISP and they found that the lack of signal boost was in my wiring, and fixed the problem. The antenna works great and attached easily to the standard actiontek PK5000 modem I bought through them. The TL-WA701ND looks to have the same antenna attachment and should work fine for you!

Hello Amber!! After you connected the antenna did you set your Tv input and adjust the channel.. You have to scan the channel from 1 and set to air / antenna NOT cable. Hope it will help you.. Keep in touch.....good Luck

Hello Jeanette. I purchased the antenna for my father, so I can't really help you as to instructions (he doesn't need them). The only suggestion I can think of, is to either contact Winegard or perhaps, ask someone who has put up an antenna. Hopefully, this helped or at least gave you some ideas. Good luck! :)

Hi Kyong..OK, look at your amplifier. Find the single red triangle with the apex that points in toward the body of the amplifier. That one is your power input. It is labeled "pwr in 15 VDC". Usually directly across from it (crossing over the amplifier body is an input that has a red and a black triangle. The triangle apexes are facing in opposite directions. it is labeled on the red triangle side "Pwr in" and on the black triangle side "RF OUT +15db". This is the output that will connect to the TV. The third input is labeled with two black triangles with apexes facing in opposite directions. It is labeled "RF IN REV OUT -1db". This is the input that you will connect from the antenna or signal source. So, power goes in the single red triangle post, signal to be amplified goes in the RF IN post, and the amplified signal comes out the RF Out +15db post. Hope this helps...BTW, the amplifier that was specified in the question was a one drop amp. If you have a multi drop amp, its basically the same thing except you will have 3,4, 6, whatever outputs labeled RF OUT +(some number usually between 7 and 15)dB.

It doesn't connect to ANYTHING! - That's why I returned it. It was recommended by tech support for the indoor antenna, but they failed to advise they I would need a connector adapter kit. The default indoor antenna worked fine...

Verify the antenna connections, it may need adapters, otherwise it's universal. The iSimple website can help.
