Can you turn an outside tv antenna into a wifi receiver?
Do you mean “Can you turn an outside TV antenna into an outside wifi antenna?” No. The frequencies that TV uses are far below wifi’s. However, you could certainly use whatever tower the TV antenna is on to support a wifi antenna, too. Here’s a link to the Seattle Wireless folks on wifi antennas. I’m real sure there’s some info in there you can use. http://www.seattlewireless.net/AntennaHo… Save some money for the cable from the antenna to your wifi modem. At these frequences, you will get huge losses over even short cable runs. You’ll be spending far more for the cable than for the antenna. (Just so you know.) Yes, you get far more range. The higher the gain antenna, and the taller the tower, the better.
