Long Range 38.5 Dbi Wifi Internet Antenna Review

Hey tubers; I made this video for a fellow: "jordansname" who has been having trouble finding a good Wifi hotspot during his travels, well this is my long range antenna I picked this up on eBay over a year ago, and I paid about 0 but closer to 0 with hardware, it's a USB design, comes with a 3 ft cord (Which I extended by 30 ft for a total 33 ft, as shown), though factory sealed, I added some butyl calk to seal it even better around the edges, and unit comes with mounting holes so you can place this on a mast ~ it works great (until my open network became encrypted) so now I pay like a $ucker to Comcast for something that was actually better free. Also I've had pulled signals as far as 5 houses (or more) across 2 streets thru one house & partially thru another so . The only thing I hate is that the software is a bit buggy on Windows XP & the antenna can "Crash" after 5 or 6 hrs. of use requiring a restart (& never think of unplugging while the antenna is on or you will have to reboot like 3 times) - otherwise I'm happy.

@bigboyjakes You can pickup the antenna on eBay ~ just type “38.5 dbi Wifi Antenna”, they have a newer one which is a 49 dbi I believe mine the 38.5 Dbi was $150 + the extension cables ($18 sealed as shown) I’ll do another vid of it in use some time. & some sealant & you’re good to go.

it doesn’t like rocking though since it’s directional vs omidirectional (I have one of those, the stick varity at 15 Dbi, too but they have an optional $60 or so, 1-2W booster that can double their range & use LMR195, RG142 cables/pigtail
