The dish is merely acting as a reflector (and not a concentrated one either), helping the ant. catch a 'little' more signal. You would get better results with an aluminum can ant. If you're gonna do this project, use a disposable pie pan... it's cheaper.

Now if you solder a 8" dia. Copper plate to the end of that wire and place it where the old lbn was in the focal point of the dish, you might get some better results! Some students did it with 2 old 18" dishes pointed at each other to get the link on a line of sight and it worked at 53 miles apart! at 10mbs with no added power!

NOPE. Cut off LNB from bracket, put antenna there. This is 100% bogus--all these small TV dishes are offset fed, not center fed. IF this works at all as shown, it's just plain old dumb luck.

Bullshit. Antenna shall be in the focal point of the antenna, not in the dish center.

Not picking up any Wi-Fi signal to your home? By modifying this old satellite dish, I am going to make it far more powerful Wi-Fi internet. After drilling a hole to proper sides directly in the center, I was able to slide the antenna in. Then just point it at the nearest Wi-Fi source and you got free internet.

Just select all of these access points. All I have to do is go to the open one, I also bought this antenna wires so I can get a little farther from the computer. There you go, one low cost Wi-Fi antenna that gets you all a free internet you want.
