Will changing antennae increase the range?

Can I connect an external YAGI antenna to this device, to focus the signal to a remote spot?
911398
Yes. That is why the extended range version of this router is basically the same, except it has two larger, high gain antennae on it.

Different antennas have different freq. spectrum. You should be able to buy an adapter. Anything else would be stealing Satellite time.

I'm not sure but my guess is that 50 meters is going to cause a noticeable drop in the signal strength. I've added 5+ meters without a problem. Amazon sells extensions up to 9 meters only. My best suggestion would be to ask the manufacture.

Answer to your question is Yes. However, you will be very disappointed with the communicating range of these units.

I have no idea about the built-in antennae, but I've noticed no change in reception from the one that came with the Garmin. Everything works perfectly.

Yes, but the location and signal acquisition of your indoor antenna will affect your results. My antenna is in a window that faces most local broadcast sources with few buildings in between. If I were in a different location where buildings blocked my antenna from the broadcast sources the quality of my results would be dramatically reduced. So, you will see some improvement, but your results may not achieve your expectations, nor will your results achieve the impossible.

Try cutting the antennae wire internally. I get zero radio interference and the static isn't as bad because the range from box to radio antennas doesn't matter anymore. For me it's a lot better

No it will not. It only increases signal strength. Don't know how to increase items per zone.

I don't know since I don't live around that area. The antennae did not work for me because I was too far from tower and antennae was in attic.

it should greatly increase the ability to connect to it. However it is cheaply made and very delicate. IF you buy it make sure you move the antenna's as little as possible. It should not be a big problem so long as it is kept stationary. This may be overkill if your just looking for something to help connect in a house.

Be sure you and the person on other radio are holding the radios perfectly straight up and down, antennae up. It has been proven that when held at even a slight angle as in the natural way it lays in the hand frequency range is greatly reduced. It convinced me.

There are too many factors for anyone to give you a good answer regarding a possible increased range. For example; Is there a device nearby that may be degrading wireless signals in general? Poor electrical connections, a fridge capacitor failing, etc all can create problems.

The land line got nothing to do with it... If you place the antenna somewhere where the signal is stronger, it will increase the signal on the house.

If you're receiving a good signal now, the amplifier will strengthen it considerably. It shoudl work the same with an attic antenna as it does one placed outdoors.

Yes it can. Antennas are simply a proportional measurement of the physical wavelength of the frequency being operated. It will only require tuning for 10 meters, in the same manner you would tune it for 11 meters (aka CB). As the frequency increased, the physical size of a resonant antenna will decrease. 10 meters is a higher frequency than CB, so the antenna will need some trimming. Cut no more than 1/4" at a time and recheck with your SWR meter. I will add that you need a license to operate on 10 meters. Since you are asking this question, I am assuming that you don't have your Tech or General class Amateur ticket. Yes it can.

It increased the reception on my BaoFeng *UV-5R Plus* UV 5R+ Dual-Band 136-174/400-480 MHz FM Ham Two-way Radio. I'm not an expert, but I would think it would help.

No it did nothing for my situation. I live in a valley about 2 miles from a tower. My signal is always 2 or less & I sent this back as it didn't change the signal at all. I even had a directional antenna.
