Default WiFi antenna recommendations?

Since you used the term "whip" it tends to imply some physical motion or
vehicle,
vs a "vertical" which implies a stationary location.
And both imply a omni pattern - like a general Access Point -

OK, time to clarify...

Wifi (2.4 GHz). outdoor omni vertical (not whip), permanent mount on pole, to
be connected (very short pigtail) to pole-mounted wifi router in client mode.
Max output: 250 mW.

Is it true that the higher the gain the flatter the "donut" shape of the
sensitivity field?

(And yes, my terminology is rudimentary... please forgive.)

Thanks,
