I though I could take out the rod in the centre (that actually transmitts to sky) and fit either a USB WLAN converter or link it up to my wireless AP view some kind of cable.
Do you think it would be possible, I think if it worked it would be perfect because I need to beam my WLAN signal across a 30m gap and my 2 AP's dont have a great signal without an antenna.
So, what do you think?
