![]() ![]() Q: My car has a flat tire can someone help me change it?Ī: Check I prefer the train, anyway. I know this is going to make me sound like a complete jerk, but it drives me out of my gourd when people ask for help with something specific and are given alternatives to a different problem. So you can look at what i am talking about here is the link to the company web site. This was with an internal Wi-Fi and an external add on antennae on a laptop. If the structure had an available window i could aim the antennae at as opposed to a brick wall my signal strength was vastly improved. I found this out from experience and also from research on these antennae on-line. Glass on the other hand presents no obstacle. For instance brick and mortar, metal clad cause a very weak signal. ![]() ![]() Something that was not stated in the product manual is the fact that the ability of the external antennas ability to "receive" signal is tremendously affected by it's position re the structure from within which the desired signal (transmitter) is attempting to be accessed. I can't find the initial driver (RealTek) disc to reinstall.įrom recent experience and with a "Wi-Fire antennae which i purchased specifically for it's touted ability to extend Wi-Fi reception range by "up to" 1200 feet i can make the following comment. I have tried two different USB connector cords. It seems to happen at random, regardless of how long the machine has been powered on, logged on to Windows, or in any one "location". I did not first start having problems until about two months ago. When I first used this antenna in August, it worked fine. ![]() Sometimes I can connect to a network, other times I cannot connect to the very same network. It has happened in five different locations around the US, trying to connect to different networks. I'm running 32-bit Windows 7 on a Dell Latitude. Sometimes all that happens is the light flashing and USB connection sound described above. Sometimes I connect - that is, the blue light stays steady, the little red "X" on the system tray icon goes away, and I can select a network by using the utility. When I plug the antenna into the USB port, the power light flashes on and off five times and the computer makes the "USB connection" sound. The antenna came with a disc that loads Realtek's "RTL 8187 Wireless LAN Utility" with Windows startup. I purchased a USB Wi-Fi antenna because I'm working far away from the nearest router. ![]()
