Connect the 5-foot Ethernet Cable to one of the ports titled “1”, “2”, “3”, or “4” on your
existing Internet router.
Plug the Power Injector into 120V AC power (standard USA wall power outlet) using the
power cable.
Apply Silicone Grease to the connector threads on the antenna (sold separately). Attach
the Host Bridge to the antenna. Once attached, wrap protective Coax Tape around the
outside of the connectors to ensure a good waterproof seal.
If using directional antennas, be sure that both antennas are accurately pointed toward
each other. If using an omni-directional WiFi antenna, be sure that is vertically oriented.

recommended for both the Host and Client antennas.
