Hey Guys, I have been following the wifi forum here for a while and have dabbled in wireless for about 2 years now. Ive been messing around building the "poor mans wifi" antennas. Id like to know if you guys have built any of your own, and if you have got any pics of them and also how they are performing. I would like to know how I can improve mine and what the realistic expectations are from them. ( Distance, quality, etc)

yeah, what is the simplest way of building a Wifi Antenna for Wireless router etc..

I've heard of people using a Pringles box and Coffee cans etc..
 
i had some pics at some stage but no idea what i've done with them. i still prefer the biquads, mostly because its simple. to give u an idea, i've got one running at just over 5kms with -78 tx and -75 rx for about 2 years now and communication quality rarely drops below 100%
