WIFI Antenna Hack! - Wifi Range Extender

With just a wire, a wood screw, and a drinking straw you can go MacGyver on your PC's WiFi and make yourself an omnidirectional "range extender" antenna, similar to what you'd find in the store for $30. There isn't a lot of talk about the reasoning behind the antenna design... it's just a straight duplicate of what's in the commercial product.

The link wouldn't post for some reason so i have split it up a bit. Just join it up if you want to watch it. FIXED

I think you will find he has made (to the point I am making this post) 140 good posts and this one is good too. There are always errors and this is one, the link wouldn't join up, so he told us about it anyway. Better for him to post it than not post it at all because of a link.
Please do not be abusive to people in the future.
Consider this a warning.
