Hi! Will this Amp work with my ASUS RT N66U router. My router does have 3 detachable antennas. Little concerned about diameter. Thanks!

To my knowledge wifi antennas are all the SMA style connection. All antennas require boosters for extended broadcasting and receiving. Check on booster orientation for sending and receiving. Also which antenna is which. Hope this helps.

24AWG..I am using it on a ASUS RT-AC66U Dual-Band Wireless AC 1750 Gigabit Router ..advertising says 1.7 GBS..it has 4 ports plus wireless..I am using the 4 ports with 1 very expensive cable..I wont say the brand but I paid 26 dollars. I like a dependable network..that said..the most expensive is not always the best..this cable is a great example of that..that goes for tv's too..really

I paired this with an ASUS RT-N66U and used it as an Ethernet Adapter - this is its default mode. It detected the 5 GHz band as the having the best signal strength. I had quite a time getting this device to function properly. The instructions are quite lacking.

i probably should not answer as I do not know the specific ubu item but.... I have a lousy router and I bought two of these little wifi's and use them on an acer, a dell and a Ubuntu my brother gave me for back up when all else fails. I love the little devices and they have kept me from killing my laptops with an axe on several occassions

These are pretty good. Haven't tried these on an N66U but they worked well with my friend's N16. I installed them. Yes they are better than the stock antennas. Fundamentally, they should work well with the N66U as well. He needed higher gain antennas because of too much concrete in his apartment. For the second part of your question, the longer antennas have worked better for the same friend but those were 7 dbi. He switched to those when he moved to a larger apartment (2 floor 3000 sq ft x 2). Personally, I use the stock 3dbi antennas that came with the router (N16), and as far as I know, they are similar to those supplied with the N66U. I'm using these in my house without any problems (4500 sq feet of built up area x 2 floors). Hope this information helps!

The antenna is better on this adapter than the laptop's built in antenna so yes. However for the best results, it needs to be paired with the asus ac router

they don't connect without an adapter (referred to often as a 'pigtail' adapter cable. problem is, i don't know if your wifi access point/router has removable antenna/s. if it does, and if (usually) the connector is a mini SMA connector then you could use this: http://www.amazon.com/TP-LINK-TL-ANT24PT-RP-SMA-Pigtail-Cable/dp/B003U6825G/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1374506928&sr=8-3&keywords=pigtail+connector or, if you have a connector on the access point called RP TNC then you'd use a connector cable like this: http://www.amazon.com/RP-TNC-Plug-N-Male-200-Assembly/dp/B002LYUYYK/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1374507103&sr=1-2&keywords=pigtail+connector+rp+tnc keep in mind, every time you use an adapter of some sort you lose 1db. every 30' of cheaper cable you use you're gonna lose at least 1/2db or more so use the thickest/highest-quality cable you can if you will be putting the antenna 30'+ away from the access point....ESPECIALLY if going 60' or more. Otherwise your antenna loses a lot of efficiency. Also, remember to elevate the antenna reasonably....more than 6' off the ground if only focused on a limited area (say, 1/4 acre), maybe 15' high if your tryiing to cover about 1 acre. a lot depends on what structures are on the property and what materials things are made of. be wary of metal clad buildings such as aluminum covered barns, chain link fences, etc. penetration in those cases is iffy at best. good luck!!

The AC66 is incompatible with haswell (the latest intel architecture) but the AC68 is fine. I have had both and both give significant speed and signal boosts (if you have an AC router). Get the AC68 as it is backwards compatible with everything.

Asus Antenna freq 2.4 GHz can be use on Verizon's router, all router use 2.4 GHz freq and for more expensive model they use dual band 2.4 GHz + 5Ghz. So please check with Verizon is your router single or dual band, if dual band please take note the Asus antenna may affect the 5 GHz performance.

The USB-N53 is a great wireless adapter. My wife uses it on her laptop to connect to our ASUS RT-N56U on the 5 ghz band. She gets great speed and reliable connection all the time. The only thing you should be aware of is that the USB-N53 does not support the upcoming AC standard like your AC68U does. I don't know if ASUS has any AC-ready adapters as of yet. 30-35 feet is not significant unless you have walls in between you and the router. 5ghz does not go through walls as well as 2.4ghz so take that into consideration when planning things out.

The WRT54GL has removable antennas. It uses RP-TNC connectors. Be aware of what you're buying before purchasing an antenna. While a better antenna will help signal quality issues, it's not a cure-all or a magic wand.

Hey Ben...not to get too technical..but they seem to increase the signal in proportion to the 2.4 GHz..the operative word here is "proportionately"..I think you will be happy with the results and the price is right...check out the Asus routers..Net gear is nice..but Asus has the edge..and Asus support is second to none...good luck..Jim

I'm not sure if this will work with your specific rig, but I haven't ha an easy time with this wifi card. I was having problems with the previous one and I figured this would solve the problem and it hasn't. I'd strongly consider the intel equivalent, although it's more money I think it's more compatible with routers and computers hardware and software. I could be completely wrong and your computer is different from mine. I have an Asus laptop with high end graphics and an i7. If post on a forum if someone hasn't already answered your question.

No, that combo router has internal antennas. The router must have external antenna that's removable. For this RP-SMA cable to work, you would remove the stock antenna & attach this cable to your router. Then reinstall the a antenna on the other end of this cable. I hope this helps

From what i saw on NEWEGG's pictures the answer is no. the Dlink has non-removable antenna. is it possible? Yes, but it would require soldering skills and enough modding to void your warranty. Its neat that the D-link is DDWRT capable, i used my antenna on a WRT54GS V1 with DDWRT, An Actiontec MI424R Rev I, my TPlink adapters and my modded linksys E2500. The better question to ask is "Are the Antenna's on the D-Link DIR 615 removable?" If they are they most likely will be either TN or SMA, both which are fine with the antenna.

If U check the TP-Link website... the antennas list dB gain. TL-ANT2414B 14 Db gain. But has short 3' cable, so must be able to be located close to the router. Amazon reviews say really boosts pickup ability of access point. But as Juan said.. the antenna on the router is to broadcast the LAN and receive back from ur computer... not sign onto some other network. The MR3220 gets the WAN from either ethernet (modem connection) or a USB 3G wireless modem.

No, your router have internal antenas I recomend to you to use the ASUS (EA-N66) Dual Band N450 Ultra-Fast Wireless 3-In-1 (AP, Repeater, Ethernet Adapter) Adapter With High-Power and you can use it as a repeter. I love the product, if you are goin to buy it read the instructions from asus website.
