Will this work on a Hawking Hi-Gain HWREN1 Wireless-300N Range Extender by replacing one of its two antennas with this device?

M situation was different in that I installed it on a router with only one external antenna. I think it probably depends upon how your range extender is configured. If it simply has two antennas broadcasting identical signals, there probably wouldn't be a problem. If each antenna is dedicated to different frequencies, that may pose some issues. I guess what I would do is replace one antenna and then switch the configuration to the other and see if it works well for you in either. The other approach would simply be to replace both antennas with two Amped powered antennas, which may provide significant advantages. If it/they don't work out, you can simply return them for a refund. I hope that helps. Good luck.

i replaced one of my antennas on my wireless unit with this device.it puts out one hell of a signal.i was thinking of replacing the other antenna with another one but i would probably swamp the area.one watt covers a lot of area.i do see why it would not work.put it as high as you can and check it out with a wifi app in your cell phone.i cover a lot of area out side my place.i am glad that i bought it.take care.

I did not have to extend the antenna cables. they were already long enough on my Dell D630 laptop. I had replaced the previous 802.11abg NIC withe the n NIC and simply connected the cables. This adaptor worked like it was original to the unit. It does its job. I installed it, closed up the unit, and never needed to re-open it for any reason. That was over a year ago. Best upgrade I've made.

The Hawking antenna has what's called an N type connector on it; if I recall correctly, the end on the antenna's pigtail is a female N. I used a 20-foot-ling Hawking HAC20N cable for my installation; this comes with a male N on one end and a female N on the other. Amazon also sells the HAC10N (10 ft.) and HAC30N (30 ft.). For best results, use the shortest cable that will connect the antenna to your router; the longer the cable, the more signal loss there will be due to inherent and unavoidable electrical resistance. You will also need an adapter to connect the cable to one of the antenna connectors on your router. On my desktop's wireless adapter, and *probably* on your router too (but verify this first before buying an adapter), this is a much smaller connector confusingly called a "reverse female SMA". Since my recollection of the "gender" of the N connector on the pigtail is possibly faulty, and since I don't care to climb the outside building wall again for another look, I suggest receiving the antenna and cable first. Put them together, note the "gender" of the leftover end, and search online for an appropriate adapter to fit both that end and your router's reverse female SMS connector. This will help prevent ordering the wrong kind of adapter, which is easy to do. Once received, this adapter, only two inches or so long, simply threads on. Your router has three separate stick antennas, one for each bandwidth used; choose one, unscrew the stick, and thread on the adapter. You may wish to try the cable for a while on each of the three router connectors to find which gives you the best overall performance.

Yes, it will. You will probably have to do some fine tuning, yet extend the telescopic antenna before you do so. The relative success of which may depend upon how good your current signal is or if you are located in a larger city or rural location.

No I am sorry but that will not work with your unit. This antenna is hooked up to a clearly marked area of your receiver which has two screws designated for this antenna. Sorry.

technically it's not a range extender. and to add i was disappointed in it's reliability to stay connected to my Hawking Range extender...better choices out there.

Yes. I have the same extender and it works great. It is heavier duty than the original that came with your extender and the cord is slightly longer as well. It took mine about 30 min to link up but since then all has run smoothly.

As answered by another, as long as there is a wireless transmission from your router it will work if within its range. Hawking tech support is very good about helping with any setup requirements and you shouldn't hesitate calling them if needed. The intial setup is easy by following the instructions included with the extender. If all operates correctly for a few days, it's fine. However, if you find intermittant connection and recognition, and it's within the acceptable range, you may need to have them assist you to make sure there isn't an IP address conflict. Again, they are good about assisting. As answered by another, as long as there is a wireless transmission from your router it will work if within its range.

I have a different model actiontec modem and out works with it. Yoiu need to see if the antenna on yiur modem is removeable? If so, then you need to find out what type of connector it has. If it is a Reverse Polarity SMA (RP-SMA) connector it will work with the hawking signal booster. Hope this helps!

The original antenna is an external "wand" that attaches to the end of the unit. Under the slide cover, there is a small plug in unit. This is replaced by the external cable option. This works very well and definitely improves the function of the extender. Simply locate the pod at the end of the cable on a window sill and you should get clear signals for GPS and satellite. I hope this helps. - Hank

No. The GPS antenna that came with the Verizon Network Extender worked as well as this GPS antenna when I tested them. I also purchased an extender cable so I could have a long enough cable to reach a window for the GPS antenna to work.

Yes will work. Line of sight is the best. To increase the signal strength. Replace the omni antenna s with yagi s face each other. For a greater distance.

Hi, my laptop required this wireless adapter and my laptop only has two antennas. The adapter works fine for me with just two antennas on my laptop.

No, this antenna is made to replace the small stub antenna on the back of the unit, so that you can direct coverage to a spot where you need the most signal. For example, if the extender is in a corner of the house, then you would point the AeriaLight towards the center of the house to (possibly) get complete coverage. If you instead need a GPS antenna for the Network Extender, please let us know and we will check with the manufacturer and possibly publish it on Amazon for you.

Verify the antenna connections, it may need adapters, otherwise it's universal. The iSimple website can help.

It could but would work best with pig tail adapter so that both antennas can be used

shane ,10 db antenna will not give you an big deference ,for your project use an Hawking Hi-Gain Wireless-N Dual Radio Smart Repeater (HW2R1) and an Hawking hi-gain wirless-n outdoor access point( HOWABN1) ,l use this system for an small apartment complex with success.
