Hoping to get real world feedback from folks who are already using WIFI bridges with exterior antennas, hopefully some of you have tried both omni and directional antennas and will be able to share your experience.
Im very aware of the theory behind each type of antenna and how they work -
Some questions - will using a yagi style on a pole that I can slide up my ladder mount (for example) and adjust for signal strength/direction really be worth the effort ?
Or will be a high gain omni mounted on that same pole that I just send up in the air 10 feet be as effective ?
I realize the obvious answer here, but Im curious if real world experience vindicates the theory or not.
