This guy used an old TV aerial and a piece of copper wire :smileylol:. I'm not suggesting you do likewise, but it does seem to suggest that the TS-9 connectors can improve the signal strength with the right antenna.

I don't have the AC790S - I've got the Nighthawk M1 (MR1100). Here's the antenna I'm using, which increased my signal level from 2/3 bars to 5 bars.
Good luck.
