Title: DIR-655 and ANT24-0230 (YELLOW PLUG?)
Post by: rockinthesixstring on October 25, 2009, 02:50:47 PM: I purchased a ANT24-0230 antenna a few months ago, and just recently had to unplug the thing from my DIR-655. Not noticing where the yellow plug came from when I unplugged it, I'm now stuck trying to remember where it goes now. (I threw out the docs after the initial install :( )

Anyone with any guidance? The website FAQ SUCKS.

I know, that's my my comment about the FAQ sucking. I know what it's for.. just not sure where it goes.

Post by: lizzi555 on October 25, 2009, 09:38:01 PM: I don't know the antenna but if it is for A band routers it is most likely not used with DIR-655 as this router doesn't have A (5 GHz) band.
