I work remotely on computers so my goal is to work from the boat. I will try this setup on the bridge. It would be so awesome if it works!


If you hook up a external antenna it has to be connected to the correct antenna. Oh and make sure you get one with at least two. The one with only 1 antenna you cannot hook up a external ent.

Glad to help!

I've been working off of the Amped repeater all week from my house setup. I work out of the garage and it is extending quite well. Tonighti will test it out at the marina. Should be interesting!
Thanks,
Steve

Yay!!! I used the Amped wireless repeater on my bridge and what a improvement. I can get fast Internet throughout the boat. I can't imagine if I added the additional antennas. I bet I could go outside the harbor! Thanks a ton for the advice.

I actually will probably be buying one for my house too.
Thanks,
Steve
