Is there a more powerful antenna I can purchase for my Netgear EX6200 range extender?

    Hello Opt

     

    Netgear does not approve of using Third party attennas but if you are trying to get a better connection you may want to try and change the wireless channel in the wireless settings of your router.

  • Waste of money, they don't give significant improvement. Also high gain antennas become directional, so even all around coverage will

    suffer. If product is made poor, it can even damage the router radio RF chip.  If need more converage seek other means. Use an AP,

    bridge, repeater,  extender, etc.
