I seem to get only minimal signal using my laptop (built in) card. I would like to install a removable card, with rangebooster, and an external antenna (that I can put outside temporarily). I called staples on the island, and they have no clue what I am talking about. Any suggestions here? thanks!! http://www.radiolabs.com/products/wi...ne-antenna.php Try it, you'll like it. Wilbur Hubbard hmmm.. why would this not work for "land yachts"? It works great for a land yacht. Just drive your car or van into a neighborhood and hit the "scan" button on the software and you'll find a bunch of unsecured wi-fi access points from people who don't secure their home networks. The antenna was originally called the RV wi-fi antenna and they changed a few things and made it more waterproof and call in the RV/Wave antenna. If you've got USB ports on your computer you're in business. I'm sitting on my sailboat anchored about a half mile from an access point and that's how this post got here. Wilbur Hubbard |
