Hi All,

I would like to extend the range of a home WiFi link (better signal
strength down to the workshop) and wondered if anyone here had
*actually* built / tested one of those DIY 'can' type antenna /
reflectors / whatever?

The illegal ones you mean ? :-)

Are they?

I thought it was 'ok' as long as you didn't exceed the max power into
the thing?

So I take it it's the radiated power that is 'measured' and if so at
what point around the antenna (ie if it's directional what is gained
at the front will be lost at the side won't it?)

All the best ..

100 milliwatts ERP Effected Radiated Power. If you don't want to make a
cantenna then this lot do some very good ones. We have a link in daily
use that does 6.1 kilometres and its fine)
