Oh it is?

Oh awesome.

What part do I need for the USB?

Like is it, USB to antenna, then the antenna inside the can?

Thanks.

3. (optional) add tin foil to inside can
4. glue 802.11b/g thingy onto can
5. plug in
6. find hotspot

I was looking around.
And how much more effective is it if I used a Linksys router, that had a USB feature, that I used the antenna, that connected via USB, and I made a Cantenna out of that, and pointed it at a home made dish?

It looks like that would increase my wifi. If thats the case, thats great. I can go to the park, not even a block away. Or out in front of the house.

Thanks.
