I would guess vertical. Most wireless cards or routers for home use
have their antennas vertical. Probably a little easier to make it
omnidirectional too...

My internet service provider has established a wireless access point on top

with a passive repeater (two antennas back to back). I'll use either a
caffeine collinear (coffee can reflector) or a popsicle stick yagi on the
outside and a plain old dipole inside the shack for reradiation.

My isp doesn't have a clue as to whether is WAP is polarized horizontally or
vertically. Does anybody in this ng know for sure whether WAPs or horiz or
vert?
