Default Help with Wifi antenna

Since you did not say where you are, I'll mention the two places I
know for sure. In the U.S. WiFi EIRP is limited to 1 watt for
mobile/portable use (e.g. laptops) and 4 watts for fixed links.




Bear in mind that 2.4GHz is also an amateur band where no erp limits
exist!!



Only 802.11b/g channels 1-6 fall in the amateur allocation of 2390-2450
MHz.

If operating under amateur regulations you must identify by CW, phone,
RTTY or TV image every 10 minutes or less (see 47CFR97.119), your
transmissions must be intended for reception by another licensed amateur
station or station authorized to communicate with amateur stations (see
47CFR97.111), that has to be the only reasonable way to effectively
communicate, no other radio service available that accomplishes the same
communications (see 47CFR97.113) and you have to use the lowest power
level capable of accomplishing the communications (see 47CFR97.313).

See http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/w...7cfr97_01.html for
specific regulations.



I forgot to mention amateur communications cannot be encrypted, so no
https, see 47CFR97.113 again.
