Woah this thing is like... AWESOME!!!

woah this thing is like... AWESOME!!!

nah

How far can this thing reach?

it hits the prostate just fine

With a yagi in a parking lot, I was able to get signal 2 parking lots away from *big store*. Probably more than 2 kilometers I think.

Where did you get the antenna? I've wanted to do this for a while.

I want to see a girl masturbating with this

China and be careful. It can be illegal to put an antenna on if it is powerful enough.

i'm a boy is that close enough?

Only really if the other end is equally awesome. Otherwise you are better off with a repeater stick in between.

Are these supposed to burn out and die after a year or two?

I have a bunch of them, but was only really using 2, a legit one and a chinese knockoff one. Neither of them work any more and I'm not sure why.

i've had my one for about 5 years. granted i dont use it much so it's not really being used

What's the point of these?

You dumb cunt, that's what the Yagi is for.

They have a much more powerful transmitter in them (regular ones are limited by law so you don't shit up the spectrum).

You can put a signal much, MUCH further away, with a directional antenna to boost your gain, you can 'see' wap's from much further away too.

Best I've done with one of these was connect to a router 3km away through a concrete wall (rebar eats signal like crazy) and a few trees.

Pretty gucci

Is this the Alfa AWUSO36NH? The same one on Amazon?

what are they talking about being too powerful to sell in the US?

topkek

Like what the other anin said - china. Ebay has some chinks selling them for half price, new and working in box.
Theyre 2 watts whereas gov regulations limit shit to 1 watt.

So the one on Amazon is limited to 1 watt?

Dunno wouldnt think theyd be different, but why pay twice as much? Just wait for the ebay chinks to land your pack. Took like a week and a half to NE USA.

Surely they're the underperforming counterfeit models, right?

maybe the gooks are a wiley "people." uses the same RT2800 chipset as the more expensive ones, havnt noticed anything chinky about it so i dont think so. been using alfa stuff for a long time now.

Good to hear. I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

a fellow NEbro, always fun to see for some reason

NSA pls go
gl hf user. consider wardriving if youre getting into network stuff. kind of a dead scene, but I find its really relaxing to cover a grid with nowhere to really go, listening to music and watching kismet go crazy. I had three of these alfas and a gps dong on a rpi using a tablet as the display - worked really well.

...

NSA? ..I just enjoy seeing people from our podunk state.
I've seen the FCC try to triangulate signals to shut them down. One guy was really crafty about it, and would make their cover and shut off his equipment before the could locate it, went on that way for weeks before they finally found him and shut it down. Not sure if he got in any trouble though.

>but why pay twice as much
so I don't get arrested for using a 2 watt?

...

damn

Noice


But seriously how's hard is it for the FCC to pin down a two watt?

Juss joshin broham. Yeah i knew a guy that had an amplified antenna on his roof for the wifis, and the FCC came to "chat" with him about it. Just told him to take it down no biggie. Theyre srs about that kinda stuff, i guess if youre just playing ariund they wont hit ya with shit, nothing like signal jamming. Dont think 2w jammys would matter too much.
Reppin NEPA here hard
