WL-ANT191 Overview
More Power and Larger Coverage Range for Wireless Networking
The WL-ANT191 is Omni High Gain Antenna provides more power and larger coverage range for wireless networking. For greater flexibility in placement, the WL-ANT191 is accompanied by a magnetic based with 1.5m extension cable. It can be used with ASUS 2.4GHz access points, routers, and client cards with RP-SMA connectors.
360° Coverage Extension
Stronger signal increases wireless coverage to hard-to-reach areas. Increase the strength of outgoing signals and sensitivity for signal reception.
Cost Effective
The high-gain antenna saves wiring costs for building corporate wireless infrastructures by driving stronger signals to all corners.
Easy to Install (No driver required)
Just unscrew your current antenna, and attach the high-gain antenna in its place.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary gain performance of the ASUS WL-ANT191 antenna? +
The ASUS WL-ANT191 is designed with a 9 dBi gain rating. This significantly boosts the signal strength and coverage range compared to standard antennas included with most routers, making it an excellent choice for users looking to extend their wireless footprint in home or small office environments.
Does the ASUS WL-ANT191 use a standard connector type? +
Yes, this model utilizes an RP-SMA (Reverse Polarity SMA) connector. This is the industry-standard interface for many consumer and prosumer wireless networking devices, ensuring broad compatibility with a wide variety of ASUS routers and third-party wireless access points that support external, detachable antenna upgrades.
What is the radiation pattern of the WL-ANT191 antenna? +
This is an omni-directional antenna, meaning it transmits and receives signals in a 360-degree horizontal pattern. It is ideally suited for central placement in a room or hallway to provide consistent wireless coverage in all directions around the access point, rather than focusing signal in a single beam.
Can I use the WL-ANT191 antenna for outdoor wireless deployments? +
The ASUS WL-ANT191 is intended for indoor use. It lacks the ruggedized, weather-resistant casing required to survive exposure to moisture, extreme temperatures, or direct UV light. For best results and to prevent hardware damage, keep this antenna installed in climate-controlled indoor environments.
How do I install the ASUS WL-ANT191 on my router? +
Installation is a simple plug-and-play process. First, ensure your wireless router is powered off. Unscrew the existing antenna from the RP-SMA port and screw the WL-ANT191 firmly into the same port until it is snug. Power the device back on, and it will automatically begin utilizing the new antenna.
Will adding this 9 dBi antenna improve my wireless speed? +
By increasing the gain, the WL-ANT191 helps maintain a stronger connection at greater distances, which can improve signal quality and reduce packet loss in edge-of-coverage areas. While it does not change the maximum theoretical speed of your router, it helps ensure your devices operate at the highest possible modulation rates.
Is the ASUS WL-ANT191 compatible with all wireless standards? +
The antenna is frequency-dependent rather than standard-dependent. It is compatible with any wireless router that operates on the frequency bands supported by the antenna hardware, provided the device has a detachable RP-SMA connector. Verify your router's operating frequency to ensure it aligns with the WL-ANT191 specifications for optimal results.
Does the WL-ANT191 require any specific router configuration? +
No software or firmware changes are required. Because this is a passive component, your router treats it as a standard signal radiator. Once physically connected, the wireless access point or router will immediately utilize the improved physical hardware to broadcast your existing network settings without needing additional management.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for the WL-ANT191 at BuyRouterSwitch.com? +
