What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates.

                                            Pros: Strong build.  Long cable run. Fits on most PCI wireless cards and Routers. Acceptable performance.
 
                                            Cons: I think is not that powerful (9dBi) 
After taking the plastic off I noticed the internal finishing could be better
 
                                            Other Thoughts: Tried "dn.Shana" sugestion (taking off the plastic) but did'nt saw any difference.  I agree with him "Nice build, but some things are not ok"
 
                                            Bottomline: Worked for me.  My computer is sitting in a corner and the Wifi signal is very weak.  With this antenna I'm able to catch the signal back.
For the price is worth a try. If unsure, buy it.

Cheap

                                            Pros: - Not so big.
- Wire long enough to install it far from a device.
- Well-built.
- Very strong.
- Magnet to fix in a metal.
- Easy to install.
- Cheap.
 
                                            Cons: This device is easy to use, but its not so good as I thought. Gain is not so good. I believe gain is about 10%. If you need more than this, you should seek for better options in DX.
 
                                            Other Thoughts: Its a cheap product. I will use it to have some gain in a particular situation in my house.
Maybe if you cut the long wire, you will get better gain.
 
                                            Bottomline: If you need good gain, seek for better options in DX.
I think sku.7878 is a good antenna. Its expensive, but if you need a good gain...

Gran antena para interior

                                            Pros: Esta antena potencia en gran medida la señal del         emisor. La diferencia es notable ya que al incorporar un cable de 1m aproximadamente se puede situar en la ubicación óptima para la emisión 

                                            Cons: Por muy potente que sea la señal de emisión, si el receptor no consigue emitir a una potencia equivalente, seguiran sin verse.
Contras del producto no tengo ninguno 

                                            Other Thoughts:  

                                            Bottomline: Si necesitas una antena con más potencia y que puedas poner donde quieras, esta es tu antena.

Gran potencia, buenos materiales y poco dinero ;)

Looks good, performance questionable

                                            Pros: Looks impressive, feels solid
Reverse SMA Connector (I think?) fits my Netgear DG834G perfectly 

                                            Cons: Arrived bent in the post. The previous suggestion of sending it in a box would be good

Signal gain is not that noticeable, sometimes appears worse at times 

                                            Other Thoughts: Not sure if the damage in the post has anything to do with it, but the range on my router hasn't improved appreciably with the new aerial plugged in 

                                            Bottomline: It's a cheap antenna, but the build feels quite solid and you are able to bend it 90 degrees at the base if you need to mount it somewhere else. The weight of the antenna may topple it over if the base isn't secured properly
