Hello,
To address your question: yes, it’s completely fine to use two different Wi-Fi antennas, especially in a use case like yours. It’s a common and practical approach when you want to balance indoor coverage with long-range outdoor reception. Having one antenna inside the van for a stronger local signal and another higher-gain antenna on the roof for broader external reach is perfectly reasonable and won’t cause harm to the device.
Also, several similar discussions have been brought up on the forum here. You may find some helpful insights and comparisons there as well: |
