This WiFi range extender antenna is a flat, lightweight, and directional WiFi antenna - meaning that all of the signal is sent & received in one direction.

We sell several models of panel antennas ranging from 2 to 5x power. Our mini-panel packs a powerful gain of 3x power, this panel antenna is compact - only 4 inches (10cm) square and less than 2/8" (1 cm) thick - it is ideal for mounting on a laptop (using the included self-adhesive velcro,) or on a router or access point. It is shipped complete with a " (8cm) bendable mounting extension with an RP-SMA connector. Made for traveling it can be easily stored in a jacket pocket or laptop bag.
