I am not very computer smart so I didn't even know that would be in there but for a laptop to get wifi i guess it would make sense. Also thanks to cncguru who gave me a great deal for the ones he had. I do have a couple quick questions though. Are all antennas created equal? Like I have seen some on ebay with the cord and its like a wire spiral antenna and then I have seen longer rubber coated antennas and shorter rubber coated antennas and was wondering does size matter and is there a noticeable difference? Also wanted to ask to be sure if the antennas from an S1 will work on an S3? Thanks again Title: Re: Antminer S1 wifi antennas question Post by: cncguru on January 31, 2015, 11:25:50 PM Well what I sent you is 4 of each of these: 2.4GHz 9dBi RP TNC Omni Wireless Wifi Router Female Folding Antenna RP-SMA Male To RP-TNC Female Adapter I do believe they will also work with the S3's but have not tried. Thanks again! Title: Re: Antminer S1 wifi antennas question Post by: MRBONG411 on February 01, 2015, 01:12:57 AM Well I took apart a Pavillion G7 and not the right style antenna I guess.

I have some more broken down laptops around here I will mess with and see if I can find an antenna.

I was looking for the big gold color screw piece and not the little black wire connector piece that is connected to the board. Well that's cool I will try to connect it tomorrow and see. Thanks again |
