For the new user, here are the instructions.
Using a terminal program or the old Graphical Wifi Utility from the downloads page, connect to the WiFi adapter and send these commands:
Code: Select all
$$$
set wlan ext_antenna 1
save
reboot
Reconnect to the wifi unit and issue this command:
In the list of settings you should see ExtAnt = 1
Sending $$$ wakes up the console on the WiFi unit and it should reply with CMD indicating it is listening for your command. You only need to send $$$ at the beginning of each terminal session.
If your terminal session keeps getting interrupted with this message:
GET /r99 HTTP/1.1
you need to open the ReefAngel Service Dashboard (part of the ReefAngel Client software) and stop the Listener Service. If you have any phone apps that are logging, stop those also. You can start them again after you are done.
