I have a DI-624 wireless router, a D-Link 7dBi Omni Directional Antenna (ANT24-0700) connected to the router, and a D-Link WDA-2320 RangeBooster G+ Desktop Adapter in a second PC.

Both pc's are running XP Pro. One pc is in another house 150 feet away and pc 2 is in a workshop.

IF I add another D-Link 7dBi Omni Directional Antenna to the second pc in the workshop WILL it be able to connect to the router?

Thoughts??

Thanx

Maybe, depending on the locations and building constructions.
