Advantages/disadvantages of directional antennas:
A directional antenna such as this one concentrates all of its gain in one direction. This results in better reception and penetration of obstacles in that particular direction. But it also means limited reception to signals coming from other directions since the horizontal path is very small. We recommend this directional antenna for environments where you know the location of the Wi-Fi signal. If you are just looking to pick up available signals in any direction, consider one of our indoor or outdoor omni directional antennas, which have a 360 degree horizontal path.
