[Noobie] Need advice and recommendations for a wireless antenna set up! Thanks :)
Region : Canada
Model : TL-ANT2424B
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
In my dads village in they currently opened free Wifi in the square just about two blocks away. My current devices cannot pick up the network near or inside my house. I would like a set up to be able to set up either a directional antenna positioned on my roof pointing to the square to pick up the Wifi (which uses an omni-directional ~8db 2.4 ghz outdoor antenna).
My Problem is what would I need in order to receieve wifi via the set-up directional antenna on my roof and also to re-emit the wifi throughout my house (via a seperate router?)
The directional antenna I was thinking about getting is TP-LINK TL-ANT2424B 2.4GHZ 24DBI GRID PARABOLIC ANTENNA
It has what appears to be a female N-out which could be plugged into a usb adapter which would normally be plugged into a PC. Id like to get this signal re-emitted, however, by a home router somehow to connect to ipads and laptops, not just one single PC via usb.
PS: Might I add, there are two or three concrete building between my house and the squares omni-directional outdoor antenna so I was hoping a more powerful directional antenna would help!
Sorry in advance if it sounds like I have no idea what im talking about this is all new to me! ><
Id appreciate any help on the subject!
