A modest improvement, but (barely) worth the modest price of a set of second-hand antennas. I live in a not-huge NYC apartment with solid plaster walls. The new antennas extended the range of my Linksys cable modem by maybe 10-15 feet, enough to allow my PC -- but not my wife's Mac -- to get service in a corner room that had previously been out of reach.
I can't say I've noticed a huge difference, but there is a slight difference.Other than that they work and fit perfectly, but due to their heft, the router becomes a bit unbalanced.If you load Tomato firmware or DD-WRT on your WRT54GL router (which this product is used with), then you can increase your radio transmit power.That in conjunction with these antenna do have a noticeable difference in range and signal quality.
i can pick up my signal from my neighbors house now (.25 acre away) Easy install and my wireless coverage has greatly improved.
My signal strength went from an average 70% to 90%+Not sure how well it would have worked if I had a bunch of walls in the way.I am happy with them This solved the problem. The product did exactly what it was supposed to do. My house is pretty one (between the two floors), but my PS3 was sitting a bit far from my router.
Would recommend these to anyone who has a large distance to push the wireless signal. Great response time on product, recieved it before I expected it :) Also it works like a dream, cleaned up those signals and keeps me connected more often.
