Hello,
i try to discover the best solution for a open area, Hotspot antena,
i have tested the: SXTG2 and work fine but don´t have the full distance cover that i need, i think may be the LHG2 work better in distance cover
because have more 8dbi power, what is your opinion?
Whats the diference for aplications between this two devices?

What kind of devices are the clients? What distance do you expect?

Hello,
about 50 meters, mobile phones, tablets i need in 2.4Ghz, the main problem is that device need pass a house wall, the SXTG2 can enter in that house wall
but i have 3 bars and i looking for best signal inside of the house.
The house have a big glass window so i think is not very hard to the signal pass to inside, but i looking for best performance antena possible.
thanks

Even it is not explicitly mentioned at product page I would expect level 3 license in the lhg as it is intended as cpe only. So it is not usable as ap.

Think about beam width if you need to cover some area. More gain antennas are usually more narrow…

Rather put small ap in the house instead of radiating from outside.

what device do you recomend for work as a repeater the signal inside of the house?

I do not suggest to use repeaters as they use single radio for upstream and downstream thus share requency for both ways. Better to use one separate device as client (lhg, Sxt…) and put it somewhere on the house and run cable to internal ap (hap, cap, wap …) somewhere inside the house. According to local situation more access points might be necessary.
