Extension Antenna For Wireless Router

This right angle extension tube was just the thing I needed to wall mount an omnidirectional antenna for my wireless IEM setup. This plus a wall mount flange (plus the omnidirectional antenna itself) went together for a nice wall mounted solution.

The connection seems to be going well and I like the concept of having an extension to the router.

Great antenna work superb on my tv furthest away from the router.

I put it into my rack & i use it for live events i love the extension for the antenna to the front.

My company only uses PRO X cases and its perfect for 4 wireless microphones, Wireless Antenna Disto and a Furman Power Conditioner. The drawer has plenty of space for mics and cables!

Very happy with performance. Speed is faster than my extension router.

I have had wireless remotes but they never last. I use the extension with the wired shutterboss and have had no problems.

It's a well protected wireless 3.0 extension. It works perfectly.

I needed this to add 5GHz capability to an old laptop that I was using as a router. The big antenna on this adapter makes it 2-3 times faster and much more stable than my old means of connecting. For Linux, you need to get the driver package from the website, don't bother with the included disk. I used the latest version, I simply ran the install script in a terminal window, and it was up and running, that easy. The adapter unplugs from the base and can be plugged directly into a usb port if necessary, the antenna is hinged. The base is weighted and lets you move the adapter around for the best reception. Really can't come up with any negatives. It is hard to find a 5GHz USB Wifi adapter for Linux, and this one works very well. I'm sure the Windows and Mac support is as good.

The Synology RT2600AC router is a sound choice for anyone looking to replace their current router (necessity of from frustration). Synology's SRM interface (Synology Router Manager) is ahead of the pack as far as features and ease of use, and if you have a Synology NAS box like I do you will be right at home while configuring it as they are similar. So far performance is far better than my Netgear Nighthawk X4 (the R7500). Very solid performance with 3 PC's gaming, an Apple TV streaming video, two phones streaming music, and an iPad web browsing. A few words about the SRM- It has features other routers COULD put in but don't, like the ability to have the status lights turn on and off on a schedule (important because right now it's in our bedroom), better security, and stability. I was able to upgrade the SRM twice without loosing Internet connectivity or rebooting it. There are also plug-ins to the SRM you can get through the Package Center, like Intrusion Detection (which requires a USB drive to load). Cons- NONE. Only problem I had was with an antenna would not screw onto the screw mounts. The threads were not properly formed inside the connector on the antenna. I called Synology tech support, and submitted a ticket with all the info. A day later they shipped me a new antenna that I received in a few days. It worked fine. In the interim I used an antenna from a Netgear (they are all the same size threads). Not what I wanted to do, but I would have rather done that than wait those few days to install my new router. Very happy with customer service! Other thoughts... wish it was available when I bought the Netgear. I would have spent the extra money, because it's worth it. Routers that cost $300+? Go read reviews at smallnetbuilder.com. Many of the features are only available if you buy a new network card (for desktops), and no current laptops/tablets/phones can take advantage of the features yet either. Not for a while anyway (a year or two at least).
