This review is from: Foscam Wireless Range 9dbi Antenna Expander for Foscam IP Camera (Electronics)
I am using 4 of these and would order more of them if I have a problem with any future Foscam FI8910 that I purchase. The Foscams that were at the greatest distance from my WiFi hub were unreliable with the video going in and out unpredictably. By switching out the short antenna to these expanders I got reliable video from all my Foscams using them. However, i still have problems sending pan and scan control signals to those cameras. They respond, but slowly and not to ever command that I send. At least once I get them aimed properly they deliver a reliable video signal with these Antenna Expanders which they did not do without them.

I bought this because I was having horrible wireless quality with my foscam FI8910W. From what they recommended to me, the better antenna should fix the problem. I tried it and nope, it does absolutely nothing. There is no difference between this one and the 3dbi antenna that comes with the foscam. Very disappointing.

Its Big..way bigger than the stock foscam antenna..but it can’t even hold its self upright..it just rotates to point downward…may not be an issue for you..but it was for me due to how my camera was mounted on the wall.
