Hello All
I have a Belkin 802.11g wireless router with ADSL modem and I want to extend the coverage to an office building that is built on the end of my garage. If I take my notebook into the office I don't get a signal, if however I stand at the door entrance I do get a weak signal. I plan to install a couple of servers in the office and want these to be connected to my wireless network and to the internet.
I have decided that I could probably purchase a Bellkin Wireless Access Point and utilise it as a repeater. I could install this repeater in the office building, attach an external antenna to it and then attach this to the outside of the office wall (where there is a weak signal). Hopefully the repeater will boost the signal. I would then simply cable the servers into the access point.
One thing I am finding difficult to locate is a high gain aerial that will be ok to be mounted outside on the office wall. Also the aerial will need to have a pretty lengthy cable so I can run it accordingly.
Does anyone have thoughts on this setup, will this work, and also any ideas on where I can get an antenna from that is sutiable for this type of application.
TIA
Cheers
Richard
