D-Link ANT24-0700 2.4 GHz Omni-Directional 7 dBi Indoor Antenna Review

My wireless router is in my office in the basement. When I took my laptop to the first floor the signal strength was "Very Good" or "Good". When I first installed this antenna, it didn't make a difference and I was going to write it off, but I went through the instruction manual. The key to making this antenna work is the way you position it. For example if you keep the antenna vertical as you see in the picture on amazon, it transmits the signal in a horizontal circle. Like a dinner plate set on the dining table. If you are trying to send the signal to other rooms on the same level, this helps. However, it doesnt help if you are trying to send boost the signal to a level above or below the route. You need to position the antenna horizontally, (i.e, parallel to the floor) to send the signal in a vertical circle. My signal strength is now excellent to very good on the first floor and very good to good on the second level with the router in the basement. Hope this helps.

At first, I wasn't sure if I liked this little antenna or not. There isn't much to it... it's got a connector, a cord, a magnetic base (which is pretty strong by the way) and of course the antenna itself. It didn't seem to give me much of an improvement until I learned how to pick the correct location for it...
The biggest benefit of having one of these is flexibility of placement. With antennas, correct placement is crucial. I bought two: one for my desktop PC and one for my router. These antennas aren't necessarily any more sensitive than the little plastic ones that come with wifi cards and access points, but being able to move the antenna location from behind the PC on the floor (which is where most people with wireless cards have their antennas) to the top of your desk or on top of your monitor makes a big difference right away.
Now, if you are really serious about getting the best performance out of this antenna, I would suggest you download a program called NetStumbler. It will let you see the S/N ratio in dBm and it updates in real-time. This lets you get perfect placement with your antenna. You'd be amazed what a difference an inch to the left or right can make. I have a feeling a lot of people who have problems with aftermarket wifi antennas are not placing them properly.
For $5.54 each plus a couple bucks for shipping, this antenna can't be beat.
