Nice work.

You really do need a good ground-plane for these to be effective.

I'm sure that most routers would be better served if they mounted the antenna in the middle of the box, rather than hanging off the back at right angles.

One thing to add about return loss measurement ... especially in an installation.

If you have high cable loss, your return loss will look better than it actually is by twice the cable loss.

I wish I kept some of the rigid coax we used.

From memory it was about 1 inch diameter similar to this 7/8th diameter.

WOW, I knew there was a reason I thought you where a good choice for this road test. Excellent stuff, and already past the limits of my current knowledge but interesting never the less
