I have a Linksys LRT214 router with PPTP server active. I can connect to the router with the Windows VPN client, and once connected, I can log into the router. However, I do not see any of the other devices connected to the router, sush as my Synology NAS, printers, shared drives on other...

I would like to have an outside directional antenna to improve WiFi coverage at a boat dock about 100 Ft. from the house. I would also like to take advantage of Asus AiMesh capability, so the router would be in node configuration. Can anyone tell me if it matters which antenna connector I use...
