Since Challenger doesn't sell this - any other shops at Funan, since I am nearby?

Since u are already at Funan, then why not do a short walk (yes I know it's still quite a distance, but still walkable) to Carrefour at Suntec?

This is a popular router afterall.....
No hand leg fast, no router for you.

Why you guys never leave 1 set for me to buy and hack?
I can try improve the router capabilities with mods so all existing owners will stand to gain?!
Oh well...

I bought mine many years back at funan.

But i must emphasise that getting the antenna doesnt guarantee more signal. Placement and position still play an impt role
