Hello,

I have three BEFW11S4 from linksys.. All firmware updated to 1.44.2z..

The problem is ,, all in 4 antenna selection section in advance /wireless page in web interface,, whichever antanna selected only left antenna (viewing from from side of router) works.. Right antenna never works,,

I dovngrade the firmware to 1.44 but it dos not helped..

If so,, why LInksys Put a second antenna,,
I want to get a WSB24 and what will be use the second antenna input of the booster..

I asked this to linksys support,, but i did not get a proper answer..
Thank You

how can you tell whether the left or right antenna is working, I would like to know because I intend on getting other antenna's and would like to know. I have a signal booster on the router, but how do I know which side is working,
 
I set the befw11s4 as factory settings both antenna working

I used a notebook which connected to a any wi-fi card or ethernet,, and go 50 meter away,, i get full signal,,

Then i disconnect one of the antenna (A) from befw11s4 then no signal at all,,
I connect the antenna (A) and this disconnected the antenna (B),, than full signal,,


A and B antenna connected still full signal..
I made these tests after power cycle each time..

Thank You
