Wireless connectivity is an amazing and empowering technology. It allows people to access data and be in touch with others in a way which was impossible until recently. Whether we are are accomplishing financial transactions, reading books, listening to podcasts, or listing merchandise for e-commerce, wireless connectivity is a critical link in nearly all of our usage of the internet. For too many people, wireless broadband is a limiting and frustrating link which does not perform well enough, because the radio signals are too far and weak. This book offers ways to enjoy wifi signals and connect over longer distances.

Extend your wifi distance and enjoy better broadband with the antenna projects and smart usage tips in this book. It lays out how to build wifi parabolic prime and linear focus antennas, which the author has used, to have long distance wifi connections. Not only are large dish antennas covered, but less cumbersome wifi yagi and helical antennas are included, which can reach access points far across your neighborhood and beyond. The book gives step by step examples for modifying wifi dongles and connecting them to external antennas.

Many other guides advocate simply using a bigger antenna on a USB wifi dongle. In this book, the author suggests using the new breed of single board computers to transform the wifi into an ethernet link. These can be run for longer distances, from one’s rooftop down to the basement or other places where wifi could not reach.

The essence of this book is antenna building. It talks about the various kinds of antennas, how they can help extend wifi speed and distance, and how to build them with typical workshop tools. If you can measure, cut, work with screws and bolts, and solder, then you can build wifi antennas.

It is amazing how wireless connectivity can be improved with better antennas. Whether you are using classic 2.6 GHz wireless networking or the newer 5 or 6 GHz wifi 6, there are things you can do to assure you are getting maximum range and data throughput. Read also to learn of some security issues and solutions which matter to anyone who uses the internet.
