Recently the city added wifi, but the signal is weak where I live and I am trying to add a antenna outside such as a directional yagi or etc.
I would like to put the antenna just a few feet outside and run a short low loss coaxial cable inside just a few feet, as to try to avoid major loss in a long cable. My question is: Can I use a D Link range extender or access point device and run the antenna cable directly to it. Then I could you my computer wirelessly thru out house. I don't understand the difference in a range extender and a access point device from D link. I would like to use a D link because I also have a desk top pc with a D link card.
I hope someone can help me out with this as I would like to order a antenna and cable.

interesting. something must be wrong with the website. Anyhow, what's the point of including a hd-dvd drive when hd dvd already lost? This must be the first notebook I see that gets close to 10,000 on 3dmark 06

Too bad it has HD-DVD instead of a Blu-Ray drive...
-
something wrong with that notebook,crysis plays well on it even with t5450 proc.,and btw isn`t is 8800gts video card on it?
-
8800M... GT? I thought only GTS and GTX flavors were available?
Also, you hijacked a thread
Anyway nice review. Sad to see great notebooks with poor build quality. And vice-versa. -
A bit disappointed with the GPU, could that be because of the driver?
-
what the heck happened? I thought I posted a solution for Walter, now it's gone and all of a sudden it's a Gateway review thread...
But great notebook review btw, and awesome 3Dmark score lol -
what happened to the "noise" part of the review o.0...
-
Yeah, somethings wrong with things if it can't run Crysis at 1280x800 on low better than that. Might want to double check the drivers or the power profiles.
