Where are you going? I did WiFi in Anacortes, Roche Harbor
and Friday Harbor. 4/5 bars. 1-5MBs. I'm using a Fujisu
S6220 notebook--no external antenna.

I am looking to set up a laptop on a boat that will receive wifi
signals. I need to install a twenty foot cable from the antenna to a
cable connector which attaches
Proxim orinoco 8011b/g gold wireless card. I think I have found the
cable but
don't know what antenna to attach to it as I want to minimize loss of
signal and I believe I have to get a certain length antenna to
synchronize with the cable length to do this. Does anyone know what the

right size antenna should be? Also, any suggestions on where to pick
one
up?
I found the cable here
