,,, with what you did the measurements..???

[erossutrisno 11]

The result is out of this world!!! 

This access point is more than 4 km's away from here. using Tenda N301 as the radio.

[Admin 2545]

,,, what do you mean by this ... ????("The result is out of this world!!!" )

[erossutrisno 11]

it's about my previous reply, the results is just the best for a small antenna. that's what I mean.

[erossutrisno 11]

and it's hard to believe about how good it perform

WOW

long time i don't visit this forum

Dude above with double biquad made mistake

What type of coax cable is supposed to be used? And does it matter if it's 50 or 75 ohms? If it does matter, is there a way to check any coax cable to tell how many ohms it is? 

Thank you! 

[Admin 2545]

,,, most of the antennas on this forum are for 50 Ohm coaxial cable adaptation...!!

Thank you! 

with the label number model etc...it should have it printed on the sleeve...(eg. RGxx)

[BenQ204 0]

Ok are any of the following 50 ohms? 

- RG 58/u

- RG 59

- RG 6

Hello there,

I've seen all this topic and found many way to make a wifi 2,4Ghz antenna. Thanks to all of you about the work you've done here.

A this time my project is blocked and I'm lost... but I really want to realize this antenna. 
When I plug the antenna to my card, I see network but I can't connect to them. If I go outside I can't see any new network in the neighborhood and there a lot of house around. Just my network and I can't connect to any network 
My usb card is an external brand new alfa AWUS1900. Average output power 21dBm with four external dual band 5dBi antenna. I can see new network if I go outside with the card and all work fine.

On side of the antenna ; 75 ohms RG6U (Europe) and the conventional stuff for the rest. 

I'll post my actual config. I know distance are not good, It's a mix of different sheme and now I'm tired of assemble and disassemble and assemble, etc.

I've seen insulated is needed somewhere (otherwise there's shortcut), so i've tried to insulate disk 1 and then disk 2. Checked every time with my ohmmeter. 

But can someone tell which disk do I have to insulate?

What I wanna know is if someone can see a details or somethings.

I will be ordering real connectors, cables and adapters in the next week. For today I had to do with the means at hand.

[Admin 2545]

,,, after replacing the connector, place the ALFA AWUS1900 router next to the antenna....

[clanon 246]

ALL losses and VSWR , z mismatch...cheap CATV cable is not for 2,4ghz

Try a DIRECT COAX from card to antenna (low losses if possible)

Also aw1900 is dual band you should try to turn off the 5.8ghz to use this yagi...

yep  
crimping tool, rp-sma male and female are already in transit and I found 50m CFD195 low loss in my garage from my old job. Better than the white TV cable for sure.
Next link to the antenna will be better.

Dual band situation was already in my mind. It's not possible in ALFA integrated app to disabled 5Ghz. I've opened the AWUS to see the board, tried to plug/unplug antennas in different scenario to see if 2,4Ghz or 5Ghz are more visible and found which output is designed to operate in each frequency.... BUT, unfortunately driver is not stable (reboot frequently), each scenario are quite similar, sometimes inconsistent and I can't see anything that's help on the board. Documentation is also imprecise.

So maybe AWUS036NH (2,4Ghz only) can be an option in the future.

Any words about insulating? I'm very curious about which disk I have to insulate.

[analog 1]

About isolating...

What's needed?

[clanon 246]

a good plastic (pet ,ptfe , pp) ring on the DRIVEN element (the one with the inner wire soldered) but simulations shows it doesn't make much difference...

wikidevi having 0+1+2+aux antennas doesn't seem like the BEST candidate for a single antenna...firmware hardware conflicts...and all

for hacking you should try a in 2,4ghz the best are (in that order)

TP WN722 (version 1.0 1.1 ONLY)

RTL8187 (any flavor but imho 8187 B ,BvE ,SE, L)

and any r3070 card

Dude! It seems this card is no longer exist on this solar system  even used...
For the rest, thanks for the advice, I write down this information.

well any knock off with an AR9271 should work...but firmware makes a big difference

I have a 722 and a 721 (both ar9271 , same hardware  different firmware) HUGE difference

then the rtl8187B was digging up all the APs the 722 left unseen and hacking them on the fly

finnally the wn7200 (r3070) with some issues with Linux scripts...

HEY JOMY did he say THANKZ or named you...?

[moonlord 0]

dear admin i'm getting confused would you please send the latest design for 2.4ghz wifi band? thank you

[Admin 2545]

I think that's the best...

What's values 10, 0.25 mean?

Can you just explain last 3 discs in details? What distance should i maintain and what diameters?
