We're just getting our wireless internet organised (Telstra Bigpond) but have no idea which is the appropriate aerial.
Could anyone let me know which seems to work best in most
places?

You need a telstra Next G compatible antenna.
They range from little things about 15cm long to large stick antennas 90cm or so..
You can get magnetic based ones, permanently mounted types and just something you can stand on the desk near the puter.
Depends on your budget a bit.

Thanks all...
Didn't think to look at other brands- it's just that Telstra offer several different aerials and they were telling us that the different dBi size meant some were better in hilly terrain and others in flat country??? Maybe I will try to speak to some Telstra technical support bod tomorrow?
