Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of D-Link ANT24-0230 Xtreme N 2.4GHZ Indoor Antenna
Customer Review: Won't Boost Your Signal; For Better Antenna Placement
Summary: 2 Stars
I pretty much knew after reading the reviews for this antenna that it probably wouldn't boost my Dlink DIR-655's signal. I rolled the dice and decided to try it anyway. If you want to place the antenna in a different spot, within 3 feet of your router or network card, then this is something that will work for you. It would be nice if the antenna's cable was at least 7 feet longer, for better placement.
The antenna is easy to setup and includes screws and wall anchors, if you want to mount it on the wall. I hear you can buy some cable to extend the length on Ebay.
In conclusion, don't buy this if you are trying to boost your signal or improve the reception on a network card. Do buy this if you want to move the antenna within 3 feet of your router or network card. To improve your signal, a wireless repeater or repeater bridge will be a much better option, though it will halve your throughput(not an option for me). Get a router that supports DD-WRT and turn it into a wireless repeater or repeater bridge. You can also try moving your router to a better spot. Category 5e patch cable is cheap.
