Perhaps your best bet to answer your questions would be this forum http://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/...ral-30946.html Steve I'll give it a look if I ever get a good wifi connection here. At the moment I can't even get all the messages here. Cheers, Bruce (bruceinbangkokatgmaildotcom) Yup. Built a super cantenna and ended up with approximately 4 times the laptop alone signal. But as of two days ago we moved and the new place is behind several concrete buildings which offsets the antenna gain somewhat. I've got a 4 ft. ex-satellite TV antenna that I am re-doing, using a cantenna for the feed element that I'll install on a light pole, hopefully soon, that ought to improve things up a bit. So far I've built a "pringles", a corner reflector and a quad antenna in addition to the various cantennas and no doubt that the cantenna is the way to go..... but of course they are directional and the higher the gain the more directional.
