Well explained! Many thanks!
What does it mean when the mode lamp is blue
It's been a while since I worked on that modem. Normally blue is a good thing though.
@RFShop everything is green on mine but internet doesn't work
Nice video David, thanks. Is it also true that the connection between the cellular device and tower is negotiated, so by using a "booster" the tower will see a stronger signal coming from you and potentially reduce its transmit power?
Thanks for the remark :) Yes, it's a smart repeater so there is network control involved. I'm not an expert on that side of it but you will be more efficient than just boosting power for the sake of boosting power.
Hi David, thanks - very informative. Could you please advise how a Teltonika router using Wi-Fi calling compares to an R41 for voice performance for rural/remote area travel by 4WD? The R41 seems expensive for limited capability. Many thanks in advance.
Hi Richard, to be honest I’ve had WiFi calling work perfectly fine for me on the Teltonika’s.
@@RFShop Thanks David, any antenna suggestions for bullbar mounting or do I need to go roof-mounted?
For Cel-Fi I think bullbar is good. For 2x2 modems I’d go roof mount
I am using roof-mounted EPNT-4 antennas on my teltonikas and they work great.
Raining or waining?
I guess it's raining
Ty for this :)
Thank you !
If it is so water and dust tight how does the signal get in ?
Radio waves travel through plastic, although there could be some losses because of the material. Dust and water are physical objects and are not able to enter.
I can't find The Long Ranger on your store anymore?
True, we currently don't have it available.
I personally have the Alfa HaLow product. I just wish it could do active POE. I installed a black waterproof box where I put the POE injector in. I have an outdoor POE switch for everything else.
I think things will improve as the technology is adopted more
Fantastic vid and explanation many many thanks
Thank you very much !
Thank you for explaining this so well! Much appreciated!
You're very welcome!
I may pick one up for caching WiFi :) It has outstanding specifications :) I would need to import one from Germany since it is not available in Latvia at the time of writing. I use Iskra P-60 5G 7003800 for 5G they are cheap compared to POYNTING LPDA-500. Iskra also has a worse gain and only supports 700Mhz to 3800Mhz (Currently used frequencies in Latvia)
It is indeed quite an incredible antenna.
What an awesome antenna!
Yes it is 👌
I love it
Excellent clear advice on mimo 3 aerials with no sales pitch,thanks it been very helpful
Thank you Steve
Tx David. You explained this very well. Much appreciated
Dankie Albert :)
And vice versa is allowed? I mean turn 2 into 1? Then use an additional antenna? Can it be useful to improve absorption?
Not sure I fully understand ?
Hello does it work with low band b20 800 mhz?
Yes, it does work in 800MHz
Looks so nice there. You know your standing almost upside down on the planet. I have a question. My parents live about 1/2 mile away from me and they have internet and they said I can use their internet. Will that LPDA antenna work if I put it on my roof and point it at my parents house?
Yes, but it's the right way up down here...it's the rest of the world that is upside-down! That would work though ( the LPDA ). See the newer one we discussed on video as well.
Just watched this video. I am thinking of replacing a Nighthawk M2 with either a RUT360 or an RUTX 14. I have seen the RUTX14 on the Teltonika website and looks like it is a Cat 12 modem which I understand may deliver faster speed than the RUT360. I can't see the RUT14 on your website. Do you recommend it and sell it? What are the advantages of the RUTX14 over the RUT360?
Yes, I would recommend the X14 over the 360. However, if you are willing to spend that much money on a decent modem, the 5G model (the RUTX50) might be a better option. We don't list the X14 because for a small amount extra it makes more sense to get the 5G instead.
Can you please reduce the volume of the background music? It'll help in focusing in what you're saying
We learned a lot since those first videos. Have a look at our current videos
@@RFShop Oh okay, that makes sense. Cheers!
I don't understand why If the TS9 moves on a ZTE it won't connect to 5G anymore.
No sure. Seems that it needs a reset
🤔.... On your other video you said it's unlocked.🤔 so it should work with any sim card right?
That is correct, yes.
Hi, can I use a USB cable longer than 5m? I don't have a straight line of sight to my shed so need to route the antenna around a corner to pick up the wifi signal. What is the maximum length of the USB?
We started to see problems after 3m cable length
G'day, what is the maximum length of the USB cable that I could use? Can it be 20m for instance? I need to pick up the wifi signal on one side of my apartment then route it around a corner to get to my shed. Not a straight line. cheers
We started to see problems after 3m cable length
Wifi Halow could be an Important successor to Lorawan specifically given higher bandwidth and use if standard TCP/IP stack. I don't think Halow will do much In the space of directional/point to point communication needs. This segment is already saturated with ample amount of tech, what remains to be seen is if Halow can offer Omni directional Wifi coverage to devices in areas with common obstructions like buildings or trees. I haven't found credible trials clearly showing Halow bandwidth/client side power usage/range while using Omni directional antennas. If you can do a trial like this It would massively help.
We will keep trying to learn more...hoping to get something going this summer
Thought you were going to say: "Here in South Africa".
Lol ... lekker man :)
will this work in london???
I certainly think so
why not just boost the 4g signal and connect router to that?
I tried to explain why that would not work in this video
I m going to put a RUTX50 on my boat , just trying to sort out antennas, sounds like 2x2 mimo s is best option, Would high gain better than low gain ?
I prefer medium gain...about 6dBi
Hi David. Greetings from the UK. Great informative video. I am on the move a lot in my caravan and much of the time end up in extremely low cell performing areas. My set up is a 4G MIMO 2x2 router with a UniteCom 4G/5G MIMO High Gain Pole Mount LTE OMNIDIRECTIONAL antenna, which does a good job to pull in the LTE signal the best it can for my requirements which is data only. But there are also times where even this is not enough. My question is; Is there a way of installing an in-line booster between the antenna and router to boost the signal for data only, and guessing from your video that I would not need a splitter for this? If this is possible, which booster would you recommend? Many thanks in advance.
Unfortunately that's not really possible. The official amplifier / boosters (such as the Cel-Fi being used here in Australia) has quite a complex and network operator specific way of working. They only way to improve the workings would be with a higher gain antenna
Hi we are travelling up and down he NSW coast line. should my sim card be set to 4G (lte) , 3G or 4G or AUTO please?
Hi, the SIM-card can be set to AUTO. At the moment there are still some 3G areas left, but eventually it will only use 4G anyway, but if you keep it on AUTO you don't have to worry about the settings...the network will tell the modem what to do.
A very interesting discussion. I found the EPNT-2 disappointing because for a purely directional user, the omni is basically a support gimmick sleeping on the side offering no other benefits. Looks like I'll have to get the XPOL-24 for a proper 4x4 directional if I want an upgrade over my XPOL-2. With that said, do you know if the EPNT-2 contains the "completely redesigned on the inside" upgrade that exists in the XPOL-2 *V3* ?
Im on the 22 nd floor of a condo what antenna di you recommend
Hi. It depends on the type of service or system you are trying to implement. Please explain more
What do you do for surge or light protection that can come through antenna?
There are a number of products available out there, basically called lightning protectors. They will prevent power surge (if it's big enough) to come through. It happens by them short-circuiting once a lightning strike hits
❤❤❤❤
;)
Thanks. trying to get an M6 setup and worried i was gonna damage the connectors. Now if I can just figure out how to use the cellular / wifi offload feature. Way too complicated.
Yes, might be better to consider other Teltonika :)
@@RFShop my M6 using ATT 5g service has been rock solid. 50 down and 25 up plenty for what I need. Still haven’t set up antenna since have not needed for solid connection to the cellular network. Really happy with the setup. I did figure out how to use another internet connection for backhaul and may become useful at some point to bootleg off a neighbors connection.
@@butopiatoo it's a great little unit for portable use
These are way too expensive now. They are going through the same thing GoPro went through
Probably...but there has already been many new options available now
Hi! Nice speedtest and very informative. Do you think it will work here in the Philippines? Thanks
Yes, it should
thx for the video. i didn't understand the whole discussion of antennas towards the end of the video. something about 4 antennas with 2 of them being routed inside or outside? completely lost me the there.
That's about what it is. The NightHawk has 4 antennas, but only two are connected to the external antenna ports. If you connect the external antenna, it means you only change half of antennas, but the other ones does not change.
Do you know anything about the RUTM50?
Yes, the M50 is the US version of the X50. There is now a newer version coming soon, called the C50...has better WiFi and slightly faster processor.
Hi David, Thanks so much for your content. I’ve watched so many.. Im trying to decide if getting a cel fi go gen 4 will assist (i think it will - but does it need its own antenna or can i use my current XPOL2? Problem: Modern house; double glazed windows, metal roof - rubbish voice clarity inside home. Will work but lots of drop outs and impossible on some days to have efficient/ meaningful conversations. My current house tech; XPOL 2, Nighthawk M5 (connected via pig tails and XPOL cables) via Telstra 5G (Signal Strength at Nighthawk is 3 bars or 4 at best) Ethernet Cat6 wall outlets in all rooms and some rooms have netgear AP’s connected to a net gear unmanaged switch - Wifi calling is still rubbish though. 18-20 connected devices. Wanting to add a few POE security cameras in the future. What would you consider my current priority is? Get Celfi unit and a splitter and suitable internal antenna inside the house to improve voice and share the existing MIMO2 antenna? If this didn’t really improve the situation due to to much ‘demand’ would installing a MIMO4 antenna be a wise option (to improve the data to the home AND voice to the home) or just lash out on a suitable antenna to suit the celfi and have them both as independent. Lastly if the MIMO4 antenna was recommended - am i doing my setup a dis-service if i kept the Nitehawk M5. Should I look at upgrading to something Teltonika. Hope all that makes sense. Look forward to your advice.
Hi, sorry for the late response. Have not been that active on RUclips the last number of months. It does sound like a sensible idea. You will need to keep the two systems somewhat seperate. The new Cel-Fi's are good, and if you want better voice it's worth it. If cost is a concern, consider a slightly cheaper DR11 antenna ( $100 ) and a unique cable run ( $50 ), and keep the data and the voice services separate. That would be my best recommendation. You are welcome to call us direct to discuss Regards, David
"An antenna is not a piece of wire" Yep. An antenna is two pieces of wire 😁😁😁 -- get a chargehanger
Yes, a simple dipole. But then it needs to be very specific, and radiates all over the place.
Hi. Informative video showing real world use. Thanks. I do have a question - Would it be possible to power this unit via a battery so it can be used more mobile. I do live streaming and it would be good to have something like this is areas whee signal isn't as good.
Hi. Yes, indeed there is a battery for Teltonika available, called the BAT120. It should keep the RUT360 up-and-running for quite some time.
I'd love to see what's inside! Pleaaasee..
Lol. It's a Helix antenna. I can't open it on camera but can share some insights into what is going on in there !
I love the tech but still there are very few products on the market. I was looking for a WiFi Halow smartphone (in addition to it's 2.4/5GHz antenna) but no such thing has been created as of yet.
Yes, still a lot that needs to happen. We're going to give it a big push this coming summer
Great videos. Thank you!
Thank you :)
you shared insane unboxing! farewell. Rfshop! )
Thank you :)
Im setting up to run my house off a Netgear nighthawk M6, I live in Melbournes West and my nearest 4G/5G Optus antenna is about 950m away in direct line of sight from the roof of my house. I have been told by Optus my house does not qualify for one of their 5G modem packages but as an Electrician I believe I can accomplish just as fast speeds as their set up by putting something together of my own. For this setup which antenna would you recommend me purchasing taking into account everything you said in the clip? I'm going to assume its the MIMO-4-17 but is there another antenna you believe might be better suited to my situation? Thanks 👍
Hi. For a fixed setup I would consider an XPOL-2 ( i.e. a directional antenna ) over an omni-directional antenna. The reason is that you know where the signal is coming from, so you may be better off doing everything in that particular direction. My suggestion, if you stick with the NightHawk M6, is to get an XPOL-2, 10m of cables (or whatever length works for you) and the TS9 adapter cables. Regards, David
