Get the : Edimax BR-6208AC AC750 Wireless Fast Ethernet Router/ Access Point/ Range ExtenderĬosts around 25 - 30 USD / EUR.
I'm using one of these for connecting 2 X NAS servers running Linux - they don't have wifi but this method works brilliantly and the throughput is easily fast enough to serve full 1080p HD TV video to remote TV's etc.
Useful as well if you say want to connect 2 or 3 computers if testing stuff too. You'll get better throughput than via a standard wifi card and you have another 3 spare ports if you need to connect other devices via LAN as well. The router connects with your main router via Wifi.Īntenna on this is fine -will pickup wifi even from quite far away. Connect a small piece of LAN cable from your LAN card in the PC to one of the 4 ports on the edimax router. The Router will connect wirelessly to your main Router via both 5 / 2.4GHZ (or either -user configurable). Use an EDIMAX router in Ethernet->wifi bridge mode. And I'd like fast shipping and for it to be under $20CAD or so inc shipping, if possible.Ĭan't help you on the Intel antenna -but what about a BETTER solution (and cheaper !!!).
So, is it possible to buy this antenna standalone, or is there a similar one? I don't really want to go for the goofy extra long black antennas, or the bases that look like automotive CB radio antennas. I did buy it through Amazon third party seller but I don't want to go through the hassle of returning it as the card is still genuine and the adapter has a metal heat shield which I think is good as it bumps up against my GPU, but I had really shitty speeds until I fiddled with the antennas a bit and it's still not the best. However, once the card came in it turns out while it does have the right mPCI Intel card, the mPCI to PCIe adapter and antennas are very different, and the antennas are the generic short black plastic ones Because my desktop was situated at the other side of the house from the router, I bought what I thought was an official Intel card with this antenna because I knew the longer range and clearance would help.
