Hello,
My first post here. I just bought an AX86U and I'd like to optimize antenna orientation so the donuts cover my space as efficiently as possible. The AX86U has a 4th 5 GHz internal antenna and I'm trying to figure how how it's oriented. I found this image of the PCB:
The upper one is the AX86U and the lower one is the AC86U with the internal antennas highlighted in yellow (I wanted to include both models for reference, but I really care about the AX86U). Could someone who knows more about antennas than me let me know which way you think the signal is projecting from that antenna? It's rectangular so that tells me it's directional, so maybe a cone going out perpendicular to the front and back side of the router without much going to the sides or up/down? Does that make sense? And if it's not directional but is omni-directional, which way is the donut oriented? Any informed opinion is highly appreciated, thank you!
