A wifi antenna should always be vertically oriented because radio waves are polarized, and if you aren't in line with the polarization you'll lose gain.

- rasz_pl 10y agoWhat is the polarity of ipad antenna on your lap? :) Then you have multipath (reflections). This is why wifi cards had diversity switch and two antennas even before MIMO, and with 11n gained spatial diversity and beamforming. random google result: http://www.theruckusroom.net/2011/06/a-polarizing-problem.html http://www.theruckusroom.net/2011/06/a-polarizing-problem.ht...
