Wi-Fi Extender Antenna
on March 8, 2023

HI, can these antenna wire be extended more than 9 feet? If not, is there a reason like it just won't work with over 9 feet of wire. 9 feet is not enough.
Thank you
Thank you

I bought this antenna extender, not knowing if it would really work. I was pleased that it did, solving my problem of a disrupted signal of the camera to the NVR. We resided our house, a few years back and many devices were effected by the steel siding. Everything is OK now.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent operation in setup and viewing.
One thing, the firmware needs to be updated on the MCU to have more selections of viewing IE: Picture views of 1-8 of the hardwired cameras and 4 wireless. A diagram of 1-12 and option of rolling selections of what user chooses. With current firmware wireless pix cannot be manipulated. IE move to a new position. But besides that great equipment, I have been using Night Owl since early 2000’s

Wish there was a longer cord option

Functions well but 9' is pretty short for this application. If you need more range having the expectation that changing the placement of an antenna by 9' and it solving your problem is only reasonable in a few very specific scenarios. I wonder if someone else sells an extension cord or something.

When using this antenna on the NVR itself I find no difference on the signal strength displayed on the monitor for my cameras that are 250 feet to 290 feet from the NVR. In fact my furthest camera from the NVR drops out when using the extender antenna. I have placed the antenna in multiple positions with no performance improvement. I have connected the extended antenna to my Shop Cam and found no improvement regards to performance. What I have found is that the orientation of the antennas that come with the NVR and cameras is critical to system performance on cameras located beyond 250 feet. Cameras located within the house parameters work excellent with the antennas provided with the system. I intend to try the external antenna on my camera located the furthest away from the NVR and see what happens. If there is an improvement I will have to MacGyver a housing for it since extender is for sheltered use only.

So far, 30% of the cameras in this system have been a problem. Support takes forever and there's three hours of tech support phone-time that I will never get back. When the cameras work, they have a great view - but getting them to work is a problem

I bought my system just over a year ago worked great took me a while to figure out how to get it to record consistently sense I live in a crack head area of town.
Now to the 4 star rating somehow my system started to give me an error message on my 1 terabyte hhd drive then it completely deleted my hhd drive now I can’t get it to record a thing

Have been happy with my 8 camera, 110 powered wireless system. Not so much with the battery powered camera. Works well but battery life is horrible. Wish I had put up with another power cird. Getting rid of this battery unit
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
