Cute laptop antenna
I found a cute flat antenna and wanted to know if anyone has any experience with it. Or have any thoughts on if it would be a decent antenna for wardriving or just squeeking out that little extra distance away from an AP.



Thanks,
-un

Cute? Turn in your guy card, and put a skirt on.

Well, it doesn't appear to be a slotted wave guide, and it does have that diminutive dongle, so it's probably a prepubescent yagi with ED. Now if it just wasn't so clingy...

And it is on the back of the laptop. Not being metrosexual is it wrong to have a black antenna with a silver laptop?
