100Mw transmitter?

Its my understanding that most wireless routers for home use have 50 Mw
transmitters. Can someone point me in the direction of a more powerful
unit, perhaps 100 Mw.

Thanks and happy new year

LinkSys makes a booster amp for their 802.11b router, but there's no reason it
can't be used with their g router, except that the FCC hasn't approved it.

Seveal companies sell mast amps, but they aren't cheap (~$300 or more) and you
will quickly get the FCCs attention if you exceed the max radited power levels
for part 15 equipment.

Don't overlook high-gain antennas. I purchased two Hawking Tech high-gain
antennas from Buy.com and they work great. One is the 15db corner antenna
and the other is a 6db omni. They each improved the signal strength of my
Netgear WiFi PCI cards considerably. Make sure your AP or router antenna is
compatible. If the antenna is removable, it is probably compatible.

Best,
Christopher

50 Mw (megawatts) is a huge amount of power. Perhaps you meant milliwatt
(mW)?

Quite so. 100 MW would quickly burn anyone in the vicintiy to a cinder.

Is that really for sure, true! I think I've read somewhere recently in a
forum from some end users that the WSB24 didn't work with LinkSys
802.11g router products. Not just that they weren't approved. I'd post
the link here, but I have no idea where it was posted now, having poured
through countless messages in countless forums. (Is it me, or do I sound
like the Borg Queen?)

If you, or someone has successfully hooked up the WSB24 up to any
802.11g router products, I'd love to hear about their experience!

Personally, I've been looking into modifying the LinkSys WRT51AB and
WRT54g power supplies. Any advice on that subject would be very appreciated.

Someone on DSLReports reported that it worked. I don't have any personal
experience with it, but I did look at a picture of the WSB24 circuitboard and
there are no smarts in the amplifier. It's a straight analog boost, so there's
no reason it shouldn't work...
