### Example 1: Using the Antenna with an ESP32 WiFi Module (C++)
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the 3dBi Dual Band WiFi Antenna with an ESP32 WiFi module to establish a WiFi connection.
```c
#include <WiFi.h>
// Set up the ESP32 WiFi module
WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
// Initialize the antenna
WiFi.setAntenna(WiFi_ANT_INT);
// Set the WiFi credentials
const char ssid = "your_ssid";
const char password = "your_password";
// Connect to the WiFi network
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);
// Wait for the connection to establish
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {
  delay(1000);
  Serial.println("Connecting to WiFi...");
}
// Print the IP address
Serial.println("Connected to WiFi!");
Serial.println("IP address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
```
### Example 2: Using the Antenna with a Raspberry Pi (Python)
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the 3dBi Dual Band WiFi Antenna with a Raspberry Pi to establish a WiFi connection using the Raspbian operating system.
```python
import os
import time
# Set up the WiFi interface
os.system("sudo ip link set wlan0 up")
# Set the WiFi credentials
ssid = "your_ssid"
password = "your_password"
# Connect to the WiFi network
os.system("sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid " + ssid + " key " + password)
# Wait for the connection to establish
while True:
  try:
    # Check the WiFi connection status
    output = os.popen("iwconfig wlan0 | grep 'Link Quality'").read()
    if "Link Quality" in output:
      print("Connected to WiFi!")
      break
  except:
    print("Connecting to WiFi...")
    time.sleep(1)
```
### Example 3: Using the Antenna with an Arduino WiFi Shield (C++)
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the 3dBi Dual Band WiFi Antenna with an Arduino WiFi Shield to establish a WiFi connection.
```c
#include <WiFi.h>
// Initialize the WiFi Shield
WiFi.init();
// Set the WiFi credentials
char ssid[] = "your_ssid";
char pass[] = "your_password";
// Connect to the WiFi network
int status = WiFi.begin(ssid, pass);
// Wait for the connection to establish
while (status != WL_CONNECTED) {
  Serial.print("Attempting to connect to WPA SSID: ");
  Serial.println(ssid);
  status = WiFi.status();
  delay(1000);
}
// Print the IP address
Serial.println("Connected to WiFi!");
Serial.println("IP address: ");
IPAddress ip = WiFi.localIP();
Serial.println(ip);
```
Notes
Make sure to replace "your_ssid" and "your_password" with your actual WiFi credentials.
 Ensure that the antenna is properly connected to the WiFi module, Raspberry Pi, or Arduino WiFi Shield before attempting to establish a WiFi connection.
