NextG USB-Yagi TurboTenna Wi-Fi Booster KitDriving and camping on holiday?
Nice if you are close to a Wi-Fi hotspot.
Solution: this antenna could help pulling in the hotspot if it is a bit far.
Once setup: share Wi-Fi with your gadgets.
The kit comes with the antenna and CnSR booster box with power adapter.
The antenna pulls in the campsite hotspot Wi-Fi signal
Simply connect your Macbook and other gadgets to the Wi-Fi booster box - YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO PUT A WIRE BETWEEN THIS ANTENNA TO YOUR APPLE MACBOOK COMPUTER TO GET IT TO WORK.
"I've been doing number of research including number of brands here and other sites on getting the best signal for the price. Many don't offer more than 1000mW for the power and noted that anything higher could possibly introduce noise.
The problem I had was there is a free Wifi that's located less than 500' away but because the antenna is facing towards town (free Wifi is available for within downtown area) the connection was always spotty. Now comparing my cell phone example, it barely gets a signal. I also tested 1000mW boosted antenna which the connection was okay but nothing superb. It often dropped and wasn't reliable. Now after I bought this antenna, pointed the yagi antenna towards the door that's 10' away as it's the only visible opening; the signal boosted to 90%! I haven't tested it all the way by the door but will try that this weekend.
I also had another USB thumb Wifi antenna tethering with a cell phone which picked up maybe 10 or so connections. 1000mW antenna picked up about 12. And this TurboTenna picks up whopping 22 signals from all over. Granted 95% of the connections are secured but considering this antenna is within a first floor (two story building) blocked by so many walls I'm not even sure how it's picking up this much signal.
Consider this, I live in a town of 10,000 which is small compared to most cities. I'm only few hundred feet from the small downtown and surrounded by residential area but one can only imagine the number of signals that can be picked up in any big cities. If you can point this Yagi towards any window I'm very sure you can pick up signals you weren't able to before.
The next test is to shoot a signal from my house that's about 600' away with Wifi-Link's outdoor Yagi to see if I can get a faster and more reliable signal. Should be interesting!
This is by the far the best product I've tried for the indoor and I HIGHLY recommend the product! Without the TurboTenna no big antenna will save you from getting the signal desired ;)"
Simply because it is one of the best antennae in the market, standing out in terms of range and data throughput.
Not all WiFi antennae are equal. Only top quality components are used in this antenna. The PA (amplifier that determines the signal link quality) stage and the high performance digital filter are key differentiator. We don't cut the corners.
It is strong enough to pull in the WiFi signals through the wall.
Unlike most Yagi antennae with long broom and numerous director elements, the design of the NextG USB-Yagi aims at reducing the length of the overall antenna whilst maintaining a wider RF aperture (visibility) to pick up the WiFi signal nearby and afar, blending the best of both worlds. It is also slim and light weight that you could carry it in a traveler bag.
From a technical standpoint, we use computer-aided-design to engineer the BALUN, an important driving element for matching the overall antenna impedance with the USB amplifier, and have them built precisely by CNC and tuned for an ultimate performance.
You just need a bit of push with this high performance antenna to get online that would otherwise be impossible.
