Just bought a 2.4ghz yagi antenna and I'm looking for a usb transceiver to connect it to. If I get this will the two work together?

USB transceiver? Well I guess that's a simple description of it lol! It'll definitely work.

Answer here...You Need A 2.4 GHz Signal Booster High Gain Antenna. The Antenna Is Fitting The Receiver.

Aloha, I don't know the equipment you have mentioned in your question ( 460101 DT 4G / booster ) but this yagi ,or directional pointer/ antenna? It was our saving grace when the booster we had purchased just wasn't enough. Get it as high as you can, point it at the nearest Tower and it will increase your range of reception. Hope this is helpful for you. Kaboonshi

Hi William, if you are using this for a 2.4ghz - 5ghz antenna, it will not work unless your antenna has a gain of at least 6db for 2.4gh and 12db for 5ghz. Look up attenuation (dbloss) on 5meter cable at 2.4ghz, this cable will LOSE 5.8db of signal, you will need an Antenna that gives more than 5db of gain to negate the use of this cable -- hope this helps...

It should work just fine. Basically, these are just gain antennas in the 2.4 GHz band, and will send the signal farther. The standard antenna I used did not get the signal there (about 50 ft.) When I used this antenna, it made it just fine.

It would work if the connectors match. But, this is for 2.4 Ghz and the 5Ghz band would have to be very close to 2x the frequency of 2.4 Ghz to work as a 1/2 dipole... I dont think they are...so it would work not as efficiently as the same antennas like this that are tuned to the 5ghz band...do a search for one, if you dont find it, I know they are very common and you can find with a google search if not here on the great Amazon site....remember to look close at the connections for the right match....and the male/female labels are deceptive as these connectors often look cross gendered... it is based on the smallest center connection if it inserts or receives.

I haven't tried that cable on those models. You might want to check some of the Amateur Radio sites such as QRZ.com. It's always a good source of info.

Communications is two way, so this particular antenna has very low transmit gain and therefore even if it's receive sensitivity were much better, it could not work with one of them no matter which end you put it on. In actual testing, the output of this antenna was so bad that a unity gain (2.2 dbi) stick antenna was actually broadcasting with a slightly stronger signal when connected to the same equipment. I have tested a TPlink parabolic 24 dbi antenna that actually works for both transmit and receive.

This device is a just a signal booster so the antenna type shouldn't matter even thought the instructions show an omni-directional antenna. The unit comes with a very short RP-SMA female to female cable to connect to a wireless signal source. The output cable you will need to get to connect to the antenna also needs an RP-SMA female connector. Just remember the length of the cable decreases the power.

Yes. There is a connector for an external 2.4Ghz antenna. Insertion activates a micro switch that disconnects the on-board antenna. I did it for my Yun and it seem to have added a 3-4 dB to the RSSI I am getting from my AP (checked with the advanced configuration page). My antenna wire is less than 5 inches long. I do not know if you will get good result with a longer cable. For connector information: http://arduino.stackexchange.com/questions/525/arduino-yun-external-antenna

Works just fine with Baofeng software. Let the cable install itself, do not use any USB cable drivers provided by Baofeng. Basically it will work with any programming software since the cable simply uses a USB-serial adapter. You choose the correct serial port inside the programming software, and you are good to go.

I do not have the slightest idea. As the antenna mounts within a manufacturers product line are the same there is a possibility of compatibility. Is it matched to the frequency range is anybodies guess. Have you checked the specs?

Beam forming only works on 5GHz bands anyway. It would have no effect on 2.4GHz. So even without doing research, I'd say the antenna is a great investment.

No. The antenna uses a USB 2.0 cable so it must be run into a computer. Also driver software is needed to run the antenna. The antenna comes with the drivers.The speed and range of a router is determined by the internal parts. Rarely do routers have external antenna or the options to connect them.A few routers, however, will have an external antenna that screw into the router unit. I've seen up to 4 antennas on one unit. In theses routers you can add a screw-in type antenna to increase the range. Usually it is a co-axial connection or mini coaxial connection.... but not the USB connection like this NextG USB-Yagi design. No. The antenna uses a USB 2.0 cable so it must be run into a computer.

Yes, I use 3 different type of usb adapters with this antenna. works excellent.

Either should work. Basically, if you could plug the cable into a computer, you can plug it into the access point. I'd bear in mind what some other reviewers point out regarding limited reach of the signal and that it cannot broadcast simultaneously on 2.4 and 5ghz.
