connecting a yagi directional antenna
- 6 years ago
Good morning RJMFHWA,
It's been a while since we last heard from you, so we will close this thread. If you still have concerns, please start a new thread and include a detailed explanation so we can better assist you.
Thanks,
Liz
No. The HT2000W modem can only operate when connected to the required satellite dish. A yagi antenna would do nothing and could very well cause damage to the modem.

Ah, okay. I see what you're saying, and I'm relatively sure you can't, but I'll defer to someone who's better informed about this kind of thing. Maybe MarkJFine or Michael57, or even the reps themselves when they get back from the weekend.

If you mean using a yagi to beam the wifi, I'm pretty certain you can't do that with this modem. You have to use the internal omnidirectional antenna, which is matched to the wifi chip, or whatever setup you have using an external router.
