Dwl-g730ap Antenna Help
Greetings everyone.
I have two D-link dwl-g730ap that I want to configure as (1)client to receive wifi from outside my basement apartment and (2)ap or router? to spread the signal throughout the apartment. So where do I solder the antenna to on the g730 circuit board? and should the second g730 be in ap or router mode? Any pictures or diagrams would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

This looks nothing like a basic NetStumbler or WiFi question. |

I am connecting my Nokia n800 to the net with my city's public access Wi-Fi for which I pay $28 per month. I get a signal throughout most of the town, but just not in my apartment. I really don't want to pay for something twice especially since for me to have a hardline, I would have to pay $60 more for cable. |

The DWL-G730AP is a will not do what you want it to do. You want it to act as a repeater, which it's firmware does not support.
Buy an AP that has a repeater mode", and make sure you get one with external antennae that are removable. That way you can easily replace the antennae with high-gain units if you are getting an insufficient signal. *DLink units that have repeater mode: DWL-G710 - High Speed 2.4GHz (802.11g) Wireless Range Extender DWL-7200AP - Tri-Mode Dualband 802.11a/b/g (2.4/5GHz) Wireless 108Mbps Access Point with PoE DWL-2200AP - High Speed 2.4GHz (802.11g) Wireless 108Mbps Access Point With PoE DWL-2100AP - High Speed 2.4GHz (802.11g) Wireless 108Mbps Access Point
