Open Range Homey Zigbee and Wlan antenna mod. [IMG_20181017_121733] The range is 40% better. :+1:

Tell me what pictures you want and I will take them for you

Under the PCB check the usb connector. You can send me the photos on a PM so you don’t clog this treat. Only problem… it is midnight here in Melbourne and I must go to bed. Long drive tomorrow morning. Also, I would get a voltmeter, in case you have to figure out which is positive and negative.

I will make sure I take plenty pics for you. Ah they glued even my PSU in… :joy:

That’s funny, your antennas for Zigbee and Wifi are the same, mine are different types [image] (It’s still on 1.5.13 so I can’t see a homeyModelName, but it’s one from the first batch delivered to Kickstarter Backers)

Well done @Xtasy ! I’m still not sure, which antenna’s to order.

Hey! I’m interested in external antennas for both zigbee, zwave and 433mhz. Zigbee feels kinda straightforward with just switching the contact. But zwave and 433? People doesn’t solder on the shield for zwave, just the core of the cable, correct? Would the same apply to the 433? Just desolder the ho…

Yes desolder the antenna and that’s it. I didn’t attach the ground of the antenna

For now I am only using the Z-Wave antenna without my helper to increase signal strength. That will come next but for today it has to run like this or my lady will kill me for having the smart home inop😂

ZIGBEE will be done soon to but I don’t have the right cable for it
