Faster speeds and fewer dropouts for your wireless network!
Broadband wi fi networking is an aspect of radio that I find quite fascinating. With the right equipment, a low power signal can not only travel far but also provide excellent broadband connectivity. Antenna projects shown in on this site offer advantages to anyone seeking better performance of their 802.11 wireless network.
Any of the wi fi antenna projects shown here will provide longer range, lower required power for any data rate, and
increased privacy (lower sidelobe radiation). If your network must penetrate concrete walls, runs from one building to another, or covers a large outdoor area, is to use a high gain wi fi antenna at both ends: access points and clientsmust both support their ends of the communications link.
For very long range, use a short helical, yagi, or biquad antenna mounted at the focus of a parabolic reflector. Wi Fi dish antennas offer the highest possible gain and longest connection range.
Bear in mind that beyond a distance of 3 km, throughput may begin to decrease due to the ACK timeout setting of the access point. ACK timing must be optimized for longer distances - especially over links covering dozens of kilometers.
