  • I have a clearwire sevice, and the motorola wimax modem, if i put this in a large bowl of foil, will the signal increase? would i do this near a window? pls reply back cuz my internet is SLOW

  • So i need a DWA 140 signal booster + the 25dbi (which is an antenna?) that plugs in to it?

    And i also need an MMCX to SMA pigtail in order to plug it in?? the foil bowl looks easy to do.

    I'd love to see a vid on someone connecting this to a satellite dish. If that can be done, I might be able to reach city WiFi as I live in the middle of nowhere.

  • i have the same wlan usb....

  • Does it work really??

  • @RocktatNergua It seems to work...

  • so why dont you just get an MMCX to SMA pigtail and get a 25dbi yagi or something..

    yes... dlink failed to mention the 140 has 2 MMCX connecters...

    thought that was kinda handy.. not letting us know that eh...instead of the little 2dbi internal antenna you could put a 25dbi yagi on it and reach MILES..

    I ordered a pigtail for $5 on ebay.. and a 25dbi yagi for.. $11

  • @Me102288 I am not hiding anything I do not know what you are talking about...tell me more...I am interested....

  • @dcannell I found the connecter when I opened my dwa-140 (mines B2 version, no dif.) and found mmcx pot,, on the end opposite the usb plug..

    it is an antenna connecter (very small) so I bought the oppsite connecter that plugs into that, it has short cable from it to a larger connecter called RP-SMA (theres more types my antenne is rp-sma)

    the antenna's in the 140 are tiny 2 db gain.. the antenna I bought is 25 db..

    so I end up with stronger signal from farter away..

  • it works!

  • @Laplaya1981 its not a perfect parabola, but yes it bounces the signal efectively giving you a dirrrectional antenna insted of an omni.. omni = wasted signal one way if your trying to get wifi from one dirrection.

    even better is to use a satelite dish, replace the thing on the arm for the wifi adapter..

  • for how long can the signal stay like that ? do i need to do that every time or just one time ?

  • @TheGoku1990 Yes you have to do it everytime, and leave it in the bowl...seemed to work for me.

  • Kevin? From the Office?
