I have purchased a low price antenna that has two downleads, would it be correct if i put them in paralell or would it degrade the signal?
Help appreciated

Maybe better posting in the Mobile Broadband section PeterG, and it's not generally a good idea to post your personal email address on a public forum, it might be open to abuse, or endless spam.

You didn't mention which model your router is.

Oh and welcome along to the forums. :)
 
If your modem only has one antenna jack then only connect one of the leads.

Experiment with which one to connect by trying both and looking at signal strength readings.

Ideally you have both connected to a modem with two antenna jacks though.

You cannot connect 2 Antennas together it doesn't work that way, whether T Pieced in parallel or series, just connect one of them, as already said, to the Router.

If it's a cheap and cheerful Antenna, I would have doubts on its ability and overall functionality to perform correctly anyway.
