ok this is the think i recently had a dlink router and did notlike the coverage, but other than that the router was good, (coverage meaning i wanted my friend higher up the road to access my network, good distance).

Anywaz i ordered a Netgear WPNT834 Range Max, because the reviews were good, i read that the middle antenna (it has thee) is detachable, what i want to know is can i remove that antenna and attach an aftermarket antenna to it, a directional antenna with a higher gain than the original. What are my limits to doing this, other than the connector (dont know what the netgear has anywas).
What if i attach a WAN2118 Yagi outdoor antenna will my friend be able to access my network from his standalone pc and his pda. The distance wouldnt be a problem there , my concern is how possible it would be to do such and what other equipment would i need and he need.
My network plan is one pc (wired) and two laptops(wireless), the router and my adsl modem connected to it
