I could really use some help. I am trying to boost my Linksys BEFW11S4 Router signal. I have been researching this for hours and found many alternatives BUT I have not found one that I know will work. My main goal is to boost the signal from my apartment so that I can reach it on campus. This is not just for me, I am doing a report on Wireless networking for a class and if it goes well I may be able to spark enough interest in it to get wireless going at my university. SO, My linksys signal currently reaches about 400 feet. Now I would like to boost this to about � of a mile. If I can boost it any farther that would be wonderful but I'll take what I can get. So My questions are:
-What would be the best way for me to boost my signal the most?
-How much will it cost?
-Will this damage my router?
-and how far of a reach is 12dbi or 8 dbi. Can some one shed some
light on estimated distances?
I tried the Pringles can idea but to no avail, the hardware store did not
have the parts I needed and Radio Shack is Useless out here.
Please feel free to contact me [EMAIL PROTECTED] I can use any information
for my own use and/or for my report.
