Hello, I recently made both the EZ-10 and EZ-12 antenna reflectors (go to freeantennas.com) and tested them on my WPNT 834a RangeMax wireless router which has 3 broadcasting antennas and is a MIMO router. Today I woke up to having my DC transformer blown. And I am thinking it’s because these reflectors cause the router to suck more amps. Have you heard anything like this happening before? Luckily I have an universal tranformer I am using now to write here in this blog. Also, I have found that my EZ-12, which is 1.75x’s bigger than the original template doesn’t work as well as my 3 EZ-10s I have reduced by a 1/3 to fit on each antenna. For the Ez-10s I had to trim the left and right side of the outer antennas so they don’t interfere with the transmission from the middle antenna. Please if you have any input of why my transformer may have blown if it’s possible that these reflectors cause my router to suck more amps I would like to know so I can just do with out them and get another wifi router and use it as a repeater.

This actually worked for me. The first time a made on it was the normal size but instead of increasing my WiFi signal it dcreased. Anyway i made a new on, like three times the size of the normal on and whatta u know, my signal increased for 15%. Pretty awsome

[...] If your on a budget however, you can try making your own homemade wi-fi booster by using the template provided by freeantennas.com for the Ez-12 Parabolic Reflector. I first noticed this info on Walyou.com [...]

note tough that this will probably also increase the your signal towards your neighbours who would probably take advantage of your monthly $30 high speed wireless internet subscription =\

Hi Chejrw, thanks for your feedback.
This trick worked for me as well as some others. I am not sure why it actually reduced your reception. It seems that in your case, the regular way simply works best.

I put one together and aimed it out into my living room – the signal on my laptop actually dropped from 3 bars to 2!

So much for the magical signal booster…
