Installing the antennas

There are six antenna's in the box

2 x Wifi Antennas (2.4g/5g)

4 x 5G Antennas

4 x Magnetic 5G Antenna extenders

It is usually sufficient to install two directly to the Draytek on the 1st and 3rd slot of the middle 4 connectors.

If you are in area with low signal you can use the magnetic extender mounts optionally too (see a possible config below)
