    Directional Antenna

    Hi

    i want to find out where a particular WiFi signal is coming from, i was thinking about getting one of these

    Antenna 1
    or
    Antenna 2

    i don't need the antenna to be more powerful, just directional, but then come across this

    WindSurfer Antenna

    some advice would be welcome
    Thanks

    Antenna 1 above is a small Yagi, isn't that essentially the same thing?

    I bought this 24 dbi grid:
    amazon.com/Alfa-Weatherproof-Performance-Reflector-Wireless/dp/B004K2I70E%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q %26tag%3Dduckduckgo-d-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165 953%26creativeASIN%3DB004K2I70E
    I paid plenty for it but apparently it was a gimmick, as you could turn it right or left quite a bit without changing the signal strength much. Even more shocking: I could turn it 180 degrees away from the source and still get quite a lot of db's. What a joke.
