Kilos | wbb | 18:29 |
inetpro | wb Kilos | 18:38 |
Kilos | ohi inetpro ty | 18:38 |
Kilos | just upgraded my kde and installed that oracle java thingie | 18:39 |
Kilos | where is the rain man | 18:39 |
inetpro | ai! | 18:39 |
Kilos | what ai! | 18:39 |
inetpro | that java thingy is a waste | 18:39 |
Kilos | i need it to open that antenna design tool | 18:40 |
Kilos | how do you open it | 18:40 |
inetpro | stupid programmers that force you to install that java | 18:40 |
Kilos | inetpro, can you open that button | 18:42 |
Kilos | http://fermi.la.asu.edu/ccli/applets/yagi/yagi.html | 18:42 |
Kilos | near the top on the left | 18:42 |
inetpro | probably not without installing java | 18:42 |
Kilos | oh thats fine then | 18:42 |
inetpro | and the relevant plugin | 18:43 |
Kilos | thought you maybe had a workaround | 18:43 |
Kilos | technology has gone forward in leaps and bounds | 18:43 |
Kilos | designing and building antenna used to be major work now that tool does it for you | 18:44 |
Kilos | not the building part though | 18:44 |
inetpro | Kilos: the way they do it on that website is outdated | 18:53 |
Kilos | wow is there an even better way | 18:54 |
inetpro | java on the browser is full of holes | 18:54 |
Kilos | oh the java | 18:54 |
Kilos | i just want to build a yagi man | 18:54 |
Kilos | serious design work for a 20 element yagi | 18:55 |
inetpro | that page was last modified on Wed 08 Aug 2007 23:02:55 SAST | 18:55 |
inetpro | not saying it can't work | 18:55 |
inetpro | and at the bottom of the page it even says July 1, 2000 | 18:56 |
Kilos | normally when things dont get modified or improved then that is a working goodie | 18:56 |
Kilos | just need to get some insulating material to mount all the elements on the aluminium shaft then hopefully i can use some of the 10g wifi data you get with 8ta bundles | 19:00 |
Kilos | all 21 need to be exactly the same size though, thats the difficult part | 19:01 |
inetpro | Kilos: you really want this to catch the free telkom wifi? | 19:09 |
Kilos | yeah | 19:09 |
inetpro | ai! | 19:09 |
Kilos | what? | 19:09 |
inetpro | I don't think you'll even detect that signal | 19:10 |
Kilos | im getting like you | 19:10 |
Kilos | 2+1 isnt enough anymore for 2 months | 19:10 |
inetpro | unless there's a wifi tower very close to your house, but I doubt | 19:10 |
Kilos | i just dunno how far the yagis can see but it boosts signal in and out not like with an amp | 19:11 |
inetpro | 10gb is not even enough for me | 19:11 |
Kilos | there is one between 6 and 7 ks from here | 19:11 |
Kilos | i said im getting | 19:12 |
Kilos | you just ahead | 19:12 |
inetpro | have you tried connecting with your device close to the tower? | 19:12 |
Kilos | i got a wifi adapter card for the pc | 19:13 |
Kilos | so cant go look. need to work from here and maybe use aircrack to find if the yagi will reach' | 19:14 |
inetpro | Kilos: what about that other device of yours? | 19:15 |
Kilos | oh the router? | 19:16 |
inetpro | that motorola or what was that? | 19:16 |
inetpro | tablet | 19:16 |
Kilos | that gives lekker wifi here in the house | 19:16 |
Kilos | oh thats sisters man | 19:16 |
Kilos | i dont like android stuff | 19:16 |
inetpro | yes but you can use it to test man | 19:16 |
Kilos | it can see the next door neighbours wifi | 19:17 |
Kilos | and my pc and router | 19:17 |
inetpro | go to a known Telkom FreeWifi Location and test | 19:17 |
inetpro | then move around and see how far you can receive the signal | 19:17 |
Kilos | no man i cant play with her stuffs. she scared i break it | 19:17 |
inetpro | I bet you it will not be much further than a 100m if that at all | 19:18 |
Kilos | ya thats with the tablet | 19:18 |
Kilos | do you know the power of a yagi | 19:18 |
Kilos | dont you have one for your mobile? | 19:18 |
Kilos | the external antenna | 19:19 |
inetpro | it just improves the existing signal by 10db if you are lucky | 19:19 |
Kilos | 17db | 19:19 |
inetpro | if there is no signal to boost then you are out of luck | 19:19 |
Kilos | 20 element is a major yagi | 19:19 |
inetpro | ja ja | 19:20 |
inetpro | proove it to me first | 19:20 |
Kilos | if i can get line of site ill get the signal im sure | 19:20 |
inetpro | haha | 19:20 |
Kilos | can even build a 40 element | 19:20 |
inetpro | Kilos: we are talking about wifi | 19:20 |
Kilos | yes | 19:20 |
inetpro | and I bet you they have not implemented long range wifi | 19:21 |
Kilos | same principle with antenna | 19:21 |
inetpro | wifi goes 20m | 19:21 |
Kilos | even got a design for a helical that can see satelites | 19:21 |
Kilos | no man | 19:21 |
Kilos | thats with the built in dipole antenna | 19:22 |
Kilos | antennas are lekker to play with | 19:22 |
Kilos | mobile signal is at 950m or so and wifi at 2.4gig | 19:23 |
Kilos | night all. sleep tight | 19:57 |
