I have a dual band router and the 5g doesn't transmit as far at the higher speeds I get when I am much closer. I got 2 of these for my ALFA AC1200 and my speeds jumped up with the stronger signal. I can also take it to Burger King and use the Starbucks router because, well BK's wifi is a joke on a great day. they just don't care. I can't even do a speed test on their wifi without timing out. I do get looks from the customers when I set up the AC1200 and these paddles LOL It looks like a tiny moose, but it works so well I don't care.

Works well in my home. extend my wifi connection with 20-25% (1-2 bars) in my furthest room which is a shape rectangular apartment with a few cement walls in between. This is good enough to save me the need of an extender. The antenna is well build, but lack any manual/guideline of how best to position it, I found putting the side with logo facing the direction where I want to see more signal work best

Bought this to use with a repeater about 100' away from the main AP. Was already able to pull in about -75 to -80db with my cellphone, but was very spotty, and frequently dropped signal. I put this panel on a dd-wrt router/repeater in the same location and have been pulling in a steady -60db, with peak up to -55. That's at the Repeater itself, according to the readout in its firmware. With the standard omnidirectional antenna that came with it I was pulling in about -68 to -70db. So that's a gain of about 10-15db with just an antenna swap! Of course, a clear line of sight is important when dealing with directional, which I have.

Especially effective in the 5GHz band. Added about 5 dB extra gain in both transmit and receive. The receive part is key since the transmit part can be somewhat compensated with higher transit power.

My dji phantom3 std had crappy range. Using these antenna with the ARGTek mod ( google it) i can use 3 10dbi instead Of the original now my range has well over doubled my stock range. I now can go over 4000ft away and still have video and signal.
