I think I might've royally screwed my router up. Here's what I was trying to do:

Here's the results:
I didn't get the results I was expecting. The router dropped 2 bars from stock. I've already trimmed off all of the stock wires to add the copper wire (circled in black).
Is there anything I could do to make the signal better?
Should I remove the resistor? (circled in red)
What's that metallic thing for and should I remove it? (circled in blue).
Notes:
The copper wire is from a stripped coaxial cable, should I be using something different?
Is there anything I need to insulate? I already stripped off all the stock wire insulation, is there a substitute insulation I could use (would aluminum foil work)?
The router is a AT&T 6800G.
