I recently bought a standalone wifi antennae for my desktop to get better reception from a distant router in my apartment. It improved my connection and I want to use the same antennae for my laptop if possible. My laptop has a usb adapter with removable antennae and the same connector type. Does anyone sell a splitter cable that will allow my to connect this antenna to 2 separate adapters?

Have never heard of sharing an antenna on a wlan. With any other radio you will get a mismatch on the impedance doing this, forcing you do use a different impedance on the cable.
Buy another antenna it will be the best way to go. If the AP is fixed you could use a highgain beam antenna for a better signal.
do they make splitter cables for wifi antennas?
