I bought two of these to extend our network from inside my main building to our shop about 150yd's away. I paired the antenna with the Hawking HAC10N 10' Outdoor cable and a HWBA54G Hawking wireless G AP/Bridge. The setup was very easy and this thing came with the adapters needed to plug directly into the back of the AP/Bridge. The only thing i needed that the package did not include were some 4" wood screws to secure the mount to the side of the building. It is so good that i can get a signal in the yard all the way to the shop. Once it hits the metal walls of the shop the wireless does not go much further. Using the second antenna and another HWBA54G as a bridge and a HAC30N 30' Outdoor cable i was able to pull the signal down into the shop. I then used a Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 to get a blanket of wireless coverage inside my shop with no dead spots. I now have a full wireless setup across the yard and into the shop for less than $450 bucks. We got a quote from a company to run some cable or setup there own wireless to our shop and they wanted $8000-$10000 for it. I was not sure on the setup at first since there were some differing reviews for some of the parts that i used. Now that it is all setup i can surely say that all these components work very well together and it makes setting up wireless across a long distance very easy.
On a side note according to Hawking you can have a range of up to 2 miles when two antenna's are paired but i don't know if i would test it at that limit unless you had a wide open space with nothing to get in the way of the signal. Along with a direct line of sight from one antenna to the other. Standing outside my shop i was able to get a 3 bar signal on the wireless card from the antenna on the main building but as soon as i went in doors the signal immediately dropped to 1 bar or no signal at all. When i added the other components i was able to get a full 5 bar signal within the shop. I would recommend this product to anyone and would buy more if i need them.
