Got one before. Basically useless- sold @ ebay.
Try to make your router look nicer - ok. Try to improve reception- nada..
Keep in mind that higher gain omni-directional antennas only change the shape of the signal. A higher gain antenna like this in a vertical position would decrease the signal sent above and below the horizontal plane and focus it over a wider range.
Simply, it would increase the apparent signal on the same first floor but decrease the signal received in the basement.
I got one too. Didn't do jack. It's in the closet now.
i love the closet
Please don't come out
Rather than using this on my router - because I have a Netgear which doesn't have a removable antenna - I used it on the problem wireless NIC and it actually did increase the signal from a dismal 30% to about 90+%. Very happy with it, except I bought mine for $40 - the $20 rebate. This is a better deal.
Of course this thing "works." It directs the signal more horizontally, less vertically. The sensitivity pattern looks like a doughnut. If you need signal all through a multi-story house, this ain't for you, but for additional horizontal coverage, these work great. I use one for that purpose.
