I am looking to set up a laptop on a boat that will receive wifi
signals. I need to install a twenty foot cable from the antenna to a
Proxim orinoco 8011b/g gold wireless card. I have found the cable but
don't know what antenna to attach to it as I want to minimize loss of
signal and I believe I have to get a certain length antenna to
synchronize with the cable length to do this. Does anyone know what the

right size antenna should be? Also, any suggestions on where to pick
one up?


I'd suggest you post your question to some of the Internet wireless or
networking newsgroups. I've seen questions similar to yours posted on some
of them recently, such as, comp.os.linux.networking . I've also seen
some good antenna sources given in posted responses there.
