If you expect WiFi then you will need to attach the WiFi antennas. No need to be running extensions to another room, defeats the purpose and would kill the signal anyway. Simply screw them straight on and see what reception you get? If you need to extend/separate the antennas then look at something like a PR1KC640 or similar. Some further discussion > [@Which antenna to use with a RUTX50?](https://community.teltonika.lt/t/which-antenna-to-use-with-a-rutx50/4179): > > I have a RUTX50 that I use in the office. I need an external antenna to mount on the wall for LTE & 5G. It is impossible to find a correct answer. Teltonika does not offer any such antenna. What type of antenna should I get? 4x4 MIMO, 2x2 MIMO ? The router will be inside, with Ethernet connection and the 2 original WIFI antennas. Only the LTE & 5G antenna will be fixed outside, on a mast or directly on the wall. Thank you in advance for your help.
