EX6200 Wifi Range Extender External Antennas

Placing the extender in the vertical position, Does one of the two 5dBi external antennas is to receive the signal from the WiFi router? If so, Which of the two 5dBi external antennas (the top or the bottom one) is the antenna that receives the signal from the WiFi router?

    Hello PRrunner

     

    I would have to look into this but are you having signal issues with the extender?

    I have a similar question.. I'm hoping to use a high gain directional antenna to connect to the remote wireless router to sow longer distance from the Netgear extender. and use the standard 5db antenna to connect to the wireless devices. can one of the antenna connectors be configured for the back haul and the other for client/device access?
