Configure TL-WA801ND with external antenna

Region : Denmark

Model : TL-WA801ND

Hardware Version : V2

Firmware Version :

ISP : TDC


I have looked over this great forum, but cant find the answer to this:

I have an external antenna, which i would like to connect with the WA801ND.

Does the WA801ND then need some extra configuration ?

Which one of the antenna-connections do i use ?
And how about the other one ?

Will it improve performance to have the antenna, that comes with WA801ND connected too ? Or is that a bad idea ?


Sorry...female and blonde ;-) I thanks for any help regarding this issue.

I would also like to know to which antenna i connect my external antenna. Do I need to configure something? Second antenna stays attached or should I detach it?

the answer is in post #2, the AP uses boths antennas so you connect one and leave the other attached.
