NETGEAR ANT24D18 14Dbi Antenna Review

NETGEAR ANT24D18 14Dbi Antenna
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this to use w/ a Netgear WG302 v2. The most important thing to know in advance is that it does NOT come w/ a cable to attach to the wireless access point. Netgear recommends using any of its own branded antenna cables, and this is what I did. I am using the 5m cable (ACC 10314-03) and it works.
However, I found that the WG302 with this antenna has provides less coverage for my 2 story colonial house than a Netgear WPN802 v1. I set the WPN802 into repeater mode and use the WG302 with this antenna as the access point. This arrangement works for me.

These antennae follow spec and are a fine improvement for most consumer wireless routers, and a perfect solution for me.
I think the other reviewer may have skimmed over the obvious and well-standardized specification where Amazon product details: "male connector", when the reviewer stated "I highly recommend the seller puts a clarification about the types of connectors." Consequently, I hope this reviewer has better luck identifying clearly defined male/female connectors in other situations.
Additionally, I suppose it follows that the other reviewer may have overlooked the detailed pictures when he stated, "The product is missing detailed pictures." Perhaps he was referring to a different kind of picture, a picture other than the traditionally "visual" type.
All in all, I give this totally awesome omni-directional antenna 5 stars!!

Replacing your WiFi antenna with This Alfa Antenna will significantly increase the range and strength of your WiFi signal. Our quality built omni-directional antenna is a direct replacement for the antenna that comes standard with your router, access point, VOIP device, or PCI card. Because it is omni-directional, no aiming is equired - it can send and receive WiFi in all directions. This Alfa antenna is stronger then the less powerful booster antennas offered by major manufacturers (Linksys HGA7S and HGA7T.) Installation is very easy - just twist off the factory antenna and twist on our Booster Antenna and you'll experience an instant jump in.

Linksys SM01 Wall Mount and Stacking Bracket (package of one Bracket) Review

Linksys SM01 Wall Mount and Stacking Bracket (package of one Bracket)

Had no problems for the most part with these brackets. Some reviewers were concerned about the brackets not fitting some linksys swithces and routers. This is true for the small ones like the EXXS88W 8-port switch. For those you have to use the little notches built into the bracket, which are not that deep and if your wall mounting the switch could fall off. For the larger Linksys routers like the WRT54G it works perfectly.

I got this card to replace the stock wireless card in my Asus eeepc 1000h, which was being flaky after a couple years. The drivers from intel's website works great on windows 7. Also on my ubuntu partition (9.10) I didn't have to do anything, it just worked. Also this card draws less power, so with wifi on I get about 45 minutes more of battery life. Great card, I was worried about support for both windows 7 and ubuntu 9.10 (because they are both so new), but it all worked out great! Also great wireless range compared my old card

LaCie Network Space 2 2 TB Ethernet Network Attached Storage Desktop Hard Drive 301516KUA Review

This is our 2nd Lacie NAS drive (1st we had the LaCie Home). This one is better! I like the fact that this drive is dead easy to set up, interesting interface to manage your settings, and it is 1TB. As others have written, it looks stylish and is very quiet.
Some things to be aware of:
1. Technical support on this is not offered by phone (you have to post a query on their site then they reply. If it is not resolved, then you can phone). I did not really like this option, but it did solve my little initial problem I had due to Windows Vista and passwords. By the way, once on the phone, the LaCie team are GREAT!
2. There is no web-interface to access the drive from the internet (if say you are traveling). You need to FTP into the drive, which is fine for me, but I am sure some maybe put off by this. The older LaCie Home version had an easy web-interface.
3. Fantastic that it has the Media Server option built in. Once I had it up and running ALL of my wireless media players (DLink, BlueRay player, etc), all found the drive and would play films or music from it. This is the best advantage as we store all music and films there for easy access.
Overall, very happy with this device!

Microsoft Wireless-G Xbox Adapter Review

Microsoft Wireless-G Xbox Adapter
Average Reviews:

....Ridiculously easy to set up. Actually ,the XBOX system did most of the work for me. It detected and configured most of the network info itself from my existing 802.11g wireless network. The hardest thing was typing the 26 digit WEP code for my wireless network.I just followed the step-by-step instructions and was online within minutes. Piece of cake.
I was a little concerned about the signal strength with my Base Station being two rooms over , about 35 feet away with multiple electronic devices along the way, and no real line of sight, but my fears quickly disappeared when I checked my network speed on the XBOX and found it steady at 54 Mbps with a Very Good to Excellent signal.Fantastic.
Online gaming on the XBOX is phenomenal with the Microsoft Wireless-G Xbox Adapter.The game play is flawless. It's as if your playing with that person in your living room right next to you. There was no laggy or choppy gameplay, just really really smooth. I love this thing!!
Just take the time to read the instructions one step at a time and you'll be playing before you know it. I look forward to playing you on XBOX Live.
