Every little bit you do helps make a difference to use your expertise to improve our too. Thank you.
Glad to hear. Thank you.😉
I purchased the Yeacomm NR610 you reviewed a month ago to replace my Arcadyan. My best results on TMHI show when I am connected N25 and N41. I am currently getting 100-320 down and 20-35 up. This is an improvement from my previous 35-75 / 20-50 with the Arcadyan stuck in the house. It seemed to always latch onto N71, which I had to disable on the NR610 to force the use of N25 and N41.
That's great. Yes, all of these devices will grab the strongest signal even if it is only slightly stronger and a much worse choice of band. N25 is a good band and should get faster as T-Mobile assigns more resources to it.
Hey Peter, love your videos. I’ve had the Arcadian model through T-mobile for almost a year and I’m in the mountains of North Carolina and do not have a clear line of site. I’m getting very slow speeds, and I cannot log into the device like some channels have said for an external antenna. What should I do?
Did you download the Link.app ? Check out this one ruclips.net/video/_CG5uS1RXNg/видео.html Are you able to see the Bands that you are getting and the Signals: RSRP, RSRQ and SiNR? What are they? Put your Arcadian on a long extension cable, like 100ft and move it outside. Did it get faster? If so, I would look at getting an outdoor antenna. Perhaps like this one ruclips.net/video/HU7TQ97cv9s/видео.html
T-mobile is coming out shortly with a gateway that has external antenna hookups on it. That's all i know at the moment.
Pretty certain Peter did not address this as he did not have the new model in hand.
@markconner5569 I was just commenting on T-mobile's new gateway. I wasn't commenting on Peter's video.
I'm a subscriber to his channel and enjoy all of his videos. He was one of the reasons I cut the cord and went to T-mobile back in the day.
I saw that but have no information on the channels it supports or if it is 5G SA or NSA. I hope that it is SA because that means that T-Mobile will soon be assigning resources differently. The problem is that this is a radio and not a pizza. Not all of them are the same. What about tuner sensitivity, band locking, etc. We know that this radio is made by Arcadian and that their last attempt was poor on features and firmware. It makes me sad that people get their hopes up thinking that maybe this version of the Hindenburg will be better? Don't ignore the fundamental problem... they don't know what they are doing 😬😯😉. They should put the MRD up for public comment and at least listen to the suggestions.
super helpful! Thanks for sharing the app.
thanks for videos
I got some MS issues as I play games on my router, I use a cable
just looked at the bands, on auto it selects the
10MHz@3700(B8) + 10MHz@1644(B3) + 100MHz@639334(N78)
-109dBm
5G RSRQ -5.0dB
5G SINR 12dB
ms is bad on this one, for tests its all for 100 to 200+ the 4g I stays under 40, but speeds s are over 150,mbs, and have a signal strength of 75% 4g and 55% 5g,
is the N71 band better? my cep pro 5 is locked, should I jailbreak it with the app to force another set of bands,? the 4g only have 100% signal strength and a SINR of 26 low ms. but thats diffrent bands that the auto puts on with the 5g
on only 4g is used B1 B3 and B20
What are MS issues? Microsoft? Those are normal 😀 As for band selection, many pieces of hardware select bands based on RSRP (power) which is a horrible metric. This can bet you stuck with a band with much less bandwidth, just because of a slightly better power score. n71 is 600Mhz and is usually to be avoided but if you are only getting 55% signal, you might want to switch. My Yeacomm NR330 allows bands to be selected and locked, so that makes me think that the hardware and firmware are much different. On 4G, I usually stick to bands b2, b66 because they have the most bandwidth. Where are you located?
Hey Pete any leads and info how to disassemble the inseego fx2000 and change the internal leads for the antennas to work with the compatible bands? thank you i saw the comments i suspect they have it solder it what a shame inseego i hope not but for your reaction i think they are
I took it apart. I should do a video on it tomorrow.
I'm trying to get ahold of the newest Arcadyan TMOG4AR. It covers more bands and has the option for a directional external antenna. Supposed to be faster as well.
Yes, but it is still 5G NSA. The antenna ports are a nice touch but I just figured out how to get rid of the double-NAT issue. Stay tuned. Working on video now
So odd question. I've had downloads where it's going "great" at 50mb and I've had to pause and switch to a different download and it slows down to 8mb for 15 minutes or more and then picks right back up to 50mb. All in slow periods at night. Any thoughts on this?
Downloads can be strange... Just a guess but sometime the server might see someone else downloading the same file and split the traffic but then you cancel and start again and they might have finished. Many people download at night.
Thanks for your videos they are really helpful. I have had the Arcadyan KVD21 for 8 months with no issues. The last few weeks my modem is stuck on 4k with the band b71. I cannot get a 5g signal and have called T-Mobile numerous times but keep getting the working on the towers excuse. Is it possible that the modem has malfunctioned or could it be they have just throttled me down to LTE only? I have the option of trading this one in for the Sagecom 5588w...do you think I should do that?
Anything is possible but it is more possible that they are working on your tower. The Sagemcom is not a great gateway either, none of them are. The signals you want live outside. If you are picking up b71, that is an XR (eXtended Range). It means that they are seeing more power from XR than UC. You either need a better signal or the ability to channel lock. I would recommend unplugging the gateway and waiting 15 minutes... plug in again and see what you get. Also, what are your scores RSRP, RSRQ, SiNR? Can they be improved? Here is a unit that does a great job because it lives outdoors. You can run it up to 300ft! ruclips.net/video/HU7TQ97cv9s/видео.html This would give you better signal, the ability to channel lock and 5G SA. The Arcadyan KVD21 gets 5G NSA n71, n66 adn n41. This one get so many more and you can band lock!
I am getting the following...RSRP -76...RSRQ -7...SINR 17 ...RSSI -65. I talked to T-Mobile and they are sending me a new modem...supposedly the newest one the G4-SE or GS AR. I hope this solves the problem but we will see. We have loved using T-Mobile for our phones and internet up until now. We don't want to leave them especially with us paying 25 dollars a month for wi-fi/internet and the locked in price that can't go up. It is a shame because the tower is right outside across the street where you can see it so unless we are being throttled I don't understand what the issue is. Thanks for your advice.
I used external Antenna and while the signal was great, I learned that Tmobile prioritized phones over home data, phone had 30-40 Mbits speed and home router only 3-4 Mbits of speed on the exactly same spot. So it does not matter how good signal you have but that Tmobile puts home routers on the last end of data priority and you can not get decent home speeds even when you phone gets great data.
Part of what you say is true; T-Mobile does prioritize devices and Home Internet Users come last. This is by design. T-Mobile is first and foremost a phone network provider who has opted to sell additional bandwidth to Home Internet customers in markets where such bandwidth exists. Problems happen when people ignore their goals and try using units where they are not permitted. I live in one of the most densely populated parts of the United States, Silicon Valley California. I have millions of neighbors. When things are quiet I can get 700Mbps but when it gets impacted, I can drop to 350Mbps. Focus on getting good Signal. If you are only getting 40Mbps on the best of times, you were never getting a good signal. Focus on RSRQ, SINR and RSRP numbers. I get over 140Mbps UP! TMHI service is great if and only if it works for you. I am not sure why you would drop to 3 Mbps, that seems like something is not right.
I have an Arcadyan with 450Mbps for my 2 iMacs on the ground floor...the Gateway is located on the lower level also. But the iMac on the upper level is only getting 150 Mbps download speed and runs much slower than the low level Macs. Is the speed of operation a factor of the gateway speed or is it more a factor of the computes and its IOS???
The speed of operation can be affected by a variety of factors. CPUs, OS, WiFi version, etc. If your machine is older, try to run an Ethernet cord to the unit... but 150Mbps is not bad for an older machine. We were using ISDN lines just a few years ago. When I was a student, our university had a T3 line dedicated to just our school. That was amazing! It was as fast as NASA. T3 is only 43Mbps!!! Slow is relative. I don't use the internal WiFi but instead hook it to a Netgear Orbi MESH system, so the whole house gets good wifi. I get 230Mbps even on the furthest toilet. 🤓
Are you going to do a review of the new TMOG4AR and compare it to the older models ?
It is going to be very difficult to get our hands on it tmo.report/2023/08/leaks-show-t-mobile-will-sell-an-external-home-internet-antenna/
So, when you mentioned swapping the antenna pairs, can you do it with the device on? Also do you swap all of them to different positions or only by pairs? So 1234 could be only 4321, 3412? Or could it be anything? Thanks so much.
Glad that you asked. What I mean is keep track of the pairs so 1&2 go together and 3&4 go together. Swap the leads to that 3&4 are on the first pair and 1&2 are the second pair. Also, within that pair, swap the positions of 1&2 so that it is 2&1 and look at your scores (do a speed test even). Sometimes you have to wait a few minutes for things to settle... but do the same with 3&4 so that they are 4&3... It is kind of like going to the optometrist and they keep asking "which is better, this one or .... this one..?" You should quickly have discovered one is a clear winner.
@PeterC408 Wow, thanks for such a detailed response so quickly!! Have a nice day.
Spectrum consistently disconnects us and we're probably going to make the switch to Tmobile since we don't have fiber available. But quick question, my 4g lte signal on my cell phone is -110 dBm and 34 asu. Does this necessarily mean the 5g signal would roughly be the same?
Your phone is a $900+ modem, so it is a very good indicator of what your home experience might be like. Getting an external antenna is like getting on your rooftop with your phone but now many radios can even do better by aggregating two or more bands together.
Have some friends (non technical) that live in the country, Halletsville Texas. The recently went to T-Mobile and got their 5G home internet service. The first month was great for them until the got the next bill and found out that they did not have unlimited? Not sure whether they meant data or speed? Next month their service got so bad, nothing would load. She told me that she called T-Mobile and was told that there high data and speed tower was down? I know a lot but, nothing about T-Mobile. Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful. Does any of this make sense to you? Thanks!
I don't work for T-Mobile, so I can only shared my experience but mine has been unlimited. Speeds can fluctuate due to network traffic and network priority to phone responsiveness, but mine experience has been nothing short of excellent.
Thanks@@PeterC408
Hey! What ports do i connect the antenna too? Like for example antenna Cable 1, 2, 3, and 4 do i connect the antenna Cable 1 to L1 and Cable 2 to L2? because i been moving them around and my speeds aren’t good at all they perform very bad compare to the Gateway with no antennas i been doing research to see what ports should i be connecting but their using the new Gateway and when you made a review about the 4x4 mimo while using the Nokia version that gave me courage to see if i can fix it, Please help me fix this issue :(
All of these units have internal connectors with IPX connectors. They can be unplugged and replace by to an IPX to SMA connector that can be routed to the outside of the case. They we can hook up some real antennas like this one. Which gateway do you have? Is L1 marked on the PCBA? Where did that come from?
@@PeterC408Im Using the Gray cylinder the one your using.
Or how others call it the trashcan
I did a video on connecting the external connectors on this one. ruclips.net/video/wXSpbP8NuWw/видео.html
I wish I could understand thus. But it all sounds like jiberish.
Hello Peter, After several conversations with T Mobile tech support, I did stay with the Gateway and Mimo mini antenna. They located the different antennas' / substations close to me. My speeds have been download 180 to above 300, upload 31 to above 50, depending on time of day. I still need to change the mini's direction to the closer antenna's, but the streaming devices work as good as the Spectrum wired signal. My desktop is a bit slower, but good for me. I did run a Cat 6 cable 20 feet from the upstairs antenna to the internal box inside our bedroom closet. My other info is 4LTE b2= -88 to -90 rsrp -10 or -12 rsrq, sinr 3 or 4. 5G n41 -88 to -91 rsrp, , -10 rsrq, 16 to 18 sinr. If you have any suggestions to make the desktop faster, I'll give them a try. I can mount the mini antenna outside the upstairs window with the window cable, but T Mobile recommended moving the antenna inside the upstairs room first.
Great data from the field. It is always good to see. Now for the desktop speeds::: My guess is that something in your network is causing the slow down. Cat5e cable is all you need an 60ft is no issue. So what else is there? Do you have a hub? Is it old? Perhaps it is 10/100Mbps. How about the PC? Sometime older NIC (network interface cards) that is 10/100. Either one would slow you down to about 90Mbps.
Super nice video. I have the nokia from tmobile and it only locks to n41. Gives me around 300-350mbps down & 25up on a busy evening. Playing with my galaxy s21 and an app, I learned that, just like you, best speeds for me are NSA B66 & B2. They give me 400-430mbps inside my building, 550-570mbps in the parking lot 15ft away. What I like about B66 NSA, is the uploads. 55-65 Mbps up inside and it hit 90mbps up in the parking lot. Much better than the 25-30 that n41 SA can do
So none of these tmobile home internet devices use NSA? If so, seems like getting one loke yeacomm might be worthwhile to use those NSA bands and speeds
Great. Seems like you really know what you are getting into. Just one quick correction (if I may) is the 5G NSA means that it is 5G but based off of a 4G Lte primary signal so n41 + B66 or B2 is an example of 5G NSA which is all the gateways from T-Mobile will currently do. 5G SA is the next level, that means aggregating two 5G signals, like n41 and n25 together. This is currently what I am using with the InvisaGig modem. It has the same kind of effect on solid uploads. I am currently getting 600Mbps down and 100Mbps up and it allows me to pass through a single MAC address for better discovery outside. I am currently passing through my router and getting my PLEX to work outside my network!!! Thanks for commenting and for digging in on this so deep. You are right about the Yeacomm. It can support 5G SA too!!!
@@PeterC408 so the current home devices can do 5G NSA. Guess it just picks and stays on N41 then because I have never gotten the 600+Mbps I have seen on my phone when it does connect to 5G NSA. My phone (galaxy s21 ultra) tends to default to N41 at my home. It'll connect to b2+N41 for a few minutes after cycling the airplane mode before just landing on n41.super cool to learn all this stuff. Thanks for the reply, the great videos and charisma!
I have the white gateway from T-Mobile for a week. I added the mimo 4x4 mini antenna upstairs and directed it to the best signal. I have b2= rsrp -96 rsrq -10 sinr 7,
n41 rsrp -98 rsrq -10 sinr 18 ( but sometimes goes to 16). My question is would a different waveform antenna improve my signal?
Yes, but if you're antenna is already outside, perhaps only marginally. That mini antenna when mounted outside did an amazing job. Both and 41 and B2 are high enough in the spectrum that this small antenna should do a great job. Note: On that white unit you need to change the firmware to activate the external SMA connectors. It is set to internal antenna by default.
@@PeterC408 Hi Peter, Thanks for such a quick response. I have the mini upstairs inside the window facing toward the nearest t mobile antenna. I'm trying to use their website to explain changing the firmware. I'm hopeful this will greatly improve my speeds.
@@Speedy251 The problem is the window. Have you ever been in traffic and heard someone else's stereo? All you hear is the bass. Low frequencies penetrate objects and travel very far. Higher frequencies are blocked by even windows. Add to that many modern windows have a tint on them that actually blocks UV and this really hurts reception. I would try like hell to get it outside.
I found the correct information to change the firmware. I'll let you know the new numbers.
Yes, you have to go into the firmware and let the unit know that you have an external antenna connected (SMA connectors can not detect and automatically switch over). Interested to know the new numbers.
Frequency BandB1/B7/B3/B3/n78 Stuck with these bands? Or can I change that somewhere? Im obviously not on T-Mobile. I am on 3 in Denmark on an Oppo 5G CPE T2.
It all comes down to your modem. You really want to check my video I have coming up where I have full control over an outdoor unit built inside of a 4x4 MIMO. I can BandLock across a full array of frequencies and even put the whole thing in BridgeMode, so that the external IP address is passed to my Access Point inside. My NetGear access point then has a full set of features including DDNS which can allow me to keep track of my changing IP address due to CG-NAT and even serve videos with over 140Mbps UPLINK!!! I got this solved .... finally. Subscribe so you don't miss it.
i have a t mobile home internet 5g idk which one it is i think it might be the sage one. but my ping constantly spikes to around 80-120 sometimes 500 constantly. but sometimes i run around 29 - 40 ping in southwest Florida. do you or anyone have any ideas on why it’s like this?
PING is the measure of responsiveness of your network to a particular server. Gaming servers are generally not on T-Mobile, so they need to go to an IXP (internet exchange point) to be rerouted. Sometimes it can be better to VPN to an IXP location, so that you can maintain connection to the IXP and your packet times will actually get faster. Use a light VPN like wireguard protocol.
@@PeterC408 do i put the vpn on my xbox or something with the box?
Can you make a video about how to find what regions use what bands? Gotta be a map somewhere right?
There are maps but some complain that they are not accurate. I have done many videos on maps but my previous favorite site changed things and now it is far less usable. I'll take a look and let you know what I find.
@PeterC408 with all the 5g devices using several different N bands and what not. A map that shows what area has the best coverage with which bands would definitely help especially for those like myself who have mobile hot spots as our main source of internet.
I have been following you for several years and you got me turned on to T Mobile home 5G internet. For 2 years I dropped Spectrum internet and got T-Mobile. Them four two years I
got fast speeds but every gateway would shit the bed with
In 1 month. I had to drop after 6 gateways died. Are they better now?
I still have the original gateway but I think I know why yours were dying; they were getting too hot. Instead of using these gateways as a gateway, I have turned to using it as a modem. This allowed me to use a better access point and remove the source of heat that was causing them to die. Mine goes faster than ever now and it is a great service... just a crummy gateway. I have since reviewed several alternative gateways and even found a way to get the card to transfer units from one device to the other. Jump in the water is fine. 😄
@@PeterC408 I had fans on them the whole time, I love the T-Mobile service, phone and internet.
My 5g on the n41 band are RSRP -73 RSRQ -11 SiNR 40 which are very good and my LTE on the b66 band are RSRP -78 RSRP -9 but my SiNR is 6 or less, sometimes in the negative numbers. Is this a problem as I am always on the 5g network?
The Bands and 5G signals seem pretty good. With 5G NSA, 4GLTE is your primary signal so the fluctuating SiNR on 4G is strange. Is it possible that you are near a powerline or on a circuit with a heavy duty cycle. I switched to 5G SA using my own modem and use an outdoor antenna to get a clean signal. I am now pulling two 5G signals and getting really good upload and download. See this video to see what I am running right now ruclips.net/video/1KHCjxmIBac/видео.html
Is there an app like Hint Control for iPhone?
Nope. Just found this from an Android developer.
Good report🎉
Thank you. Glad that you liked it.
Hi Peter. I downloaded test flight and the other app for iOS. I get an error message when I put the gateway password in. I have done it several times paying attention to the spelling, but no luck.
I have the very latest gateway. The one on the left. Sageman?
I think this is an IOS thing and it is not related to the Sagemcom, but IOS asking for your Apple Password.
@@PeterC408 I will give that a try
@@PeterC408 no luck with Apple password. The app says it is asking for the gateway password.
Thanks for the info. I will play with it tomorrow a little bit. I’m frustrated right now.
I’ve waited over 2 years for internet. I don’t have a problem waiting to purchase Starlink which I know will be amazing. Thanks
@bobwilliams5376 I know of no such IoS software. No android in your house anywhere? Who knows what the iOS community is doing?
Depends more where you live
No, regardless of where you live you should try to maximize the scores I am showing you: SiNR, RSRQ and RSRP and in that order. Yes, results may vary by location, but the method is the same.
my rsrp i -109 while everything else is good or excellent getting max 14mbs
Which bands are you pulling in? Are you pulling in more than one?
How do you mesh connect From the Nokia5g21 to a WiFi 6 router/AP
No. You can't get there from there.
I work from home and I am thinking about using T-Mobile Home Internet as a backup to my Xfinity 1Gb coax. T-Mobile recently installed panels on a tower 3/4 mile from me. I can get over 700Mb download on bands N2 and N41 using my Samsung S21 5G. Upload can be 15 to 35Mb.
Sounds good. I have the S21 as well and it is a good indicator of success.
@@PeterC408 And you can lock the bands on Samsung.
Im using T-Mobile home internet as a backup for my AT&T fiber and it works great.
Got 790 down (at 4AM) once with the trash can. No extra antenna! The tower is not far away. Waiting for a cheaper modem solution. Hopefully soon.
The modern 5G Gateway is really a 4G Gateway as well. The good ones actually have 4 antenna ports, aggerate 2 or more frequencies and support network frequencies above 1Gpbs. I don't think we are going back to 4G LTE gateway pricing for radios like these.
@@PeterC408 The pricing always comes down.
The t-mobile antenna is 500 feet away from my t-mobile internet. How can I get more downloads?
Actually, you do not want to be too close to an antenna. It can cause reception problems. There is a deadspot near most antennas. What are your signals? Have you downloaded HINT? Can you pull your RSRP, RSRQ and SiNR? Here's how. Watch this video ruclips.net/video/JkO29RJtTrQ/видео.html

I just got the Chester cheetah and hooked up my mimo 4 and my ping and speed went down. Could you let me know how you hook up your wires to the back. my antenna has numbers 1-4 on the back of the mimo. also it want let me do wifi calling anymore how to you resolve that
The speed should not go down. There are pairs of antennas in both the device and the antenna. Check your providers website. It sounds like you've got the pairings wrong.
Used this and wound up raising the gateway up three inches. More than doubled my speed.
Location, location, location. 😁
I would assume the T Mobil rep will know which one works the best for my neighborhood.
Sadly no. They get the one that is available. The good news is that they are all about the same. There is a new one called the Arcadian G4AR (white) and it has external antenna ports, but you still need to get an external antenna. www.t-mobile.com/support/home-internet/5g-gateway-g4ar Everyone is trying to get that one and it is available for possible trouble spots only. While neat, there are other 3rd party solution that bring your modem further outside and are powered over Ethernet. Solutions like this ruclips.net/video/HU7TQ97cv9s/видео.html that are about the same price as an external antenna and get even more 5G signals and allow two 5G bands to be aggregated together instead of riding on top of 4GLTE. I have a new one coming that I am really excited about. Favorite my channel and you will see it pop up.
Is Verizon 5G home internet available in your area?
Verizon is a great service, if you can get it. See they bought the wrong frequencies from the FCC. They spent $54B buying up frequencies that look great for marketing number (fast) but forgot about coverage. TMobile ate their frigging lunch by spending $9B and purchasing less desirable mid band frequencies to cover the USA. The pulled a fast one by aggregating two frequencies to get the coverage and build back the speed. I get gigabit speeds and I live in Silicon Valley but Verizon, I can't get. Lame. Sorry. #Next_Blockbuster.
Tried the t-mobile device with the little screen. 8 different spots in the house - 4 downstairs, 4 upstairs. It is slower than my dedicated hotspot, slower than the cell phone, and slower the Spectrum cable internet. I returned it and will wait for the new model with external antenna connections rather than the hack to add it to this device.
Education will set you free! I get gigabit speeds and for $40/mo. Keep an open mind and willingness to try it again. TMobile is going to take over. AT&T missed the boat and Verizon got on the wrong boat.
Where can I find the hint app on iPhone ?
Does not exist. Sorry.
Maybe you can find a tablet or a friend with an Android device and run the program that way. It is good to know this data but once you get it sorted, you don't need to reference it often.
Awesome video brother. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible night. Much love and RESPECT. Very informative video
n25 is out in lots of areas already for months now
No argument that it is out, but n25 is currently assigned less resources than n71!!! That's right a 600MHz carrier is out performing a 1900MHz carrier. That is not right but it is TMobile's decision how to apply resources. There is more to this than simply wanting to go faster or getting your best signal. Band locking is becoming increasingly critical.
@@PeterC408 maybe not be wide spread but here that's not the case, my n25 gives me well over 300 down meanwhile 71 less than 150
Can you do Verizon gateway?
Do you mean, can this program work with the Verizon gateway? Perhaps he will be willing to write an application to do the same thing for Verizon but my video would be the same.. maximize SiNR, RSRQ and RSRP.
@@PeterC408 yes, that's what I mean. I tried the app and it doesn't work for Verizon gateways.
I'm still using the grey celinder one no issues just high ping sometimes
If it works, don't fix it, but I support over 15 WiFi devices, and that thing got brick oven hot.
@@PeterC408hey sir, how did you get hold of that business gateway? I've been trying to get it but everything I read says you get the same gateway as with home Internet.

Sorry, not sure what this means.
@@PeterC408 I downloaded the Hint control app and put in the password but it gives me an error.
I got good download but download apps is slow than phone line
Yes and it isn't just because your phone is a $1200 radio but it also has to do with PRIORITY. T-Mobile is a phone network, first and foremost. They want/need to make that top priority. Home Internet is a secondary market where they sell additional bandwidth, when and where it exists. To safeguard the phone experience they have created priority levels. Let's be frank, no one is going to download 2TB on their phone, there is no storage to support that, so they let them go hog wild on a speed test. If you are getting good speeds and good signal at home, that is great. If you want better priority, get a business line, that is the next level up but still not phone level, it's a phone network.
Unfortunately with this video it just shows me that T-Mobile shouldn't have released home 5G in my area yet. My numbers on 5G are so bad I'm at the edge of the cell signal. My SINR is a 0.8 😐
That could be the wrong conclusion. Placement is key. You are trying to receive an outdoor signal with an indoor antenna. Have you tried another location? The frustration that I had initially was caused by my desire to place it in the center of my home for the best WiFi reception. You can't do that. If you have a full size house, you will still need big-boy WiFi (Mesh system). I use this device as a modem only, it runs better that way too. I then graduated to an external antenna and have had over 500Mbps down / 100Mbps up for going on 3 years!
I got the Sagemcon 10 days ago and got 400mbps with n71. Two days ago both LTE and 5G are locked on the 2kHz bands and now my Data speed is 100gbps. Go figure.
Yes, I touched upon that in this video ruclips.net/video/ZSwL3D5yk1w/видео.html. Even though you have locked into a better band , T-mobile is currently assigning resources to artificially favor the more popular n71. It will most likely solve itself in the future, thus the desire to band-lock.
Thank you.
this kind modem not cheap at all cost too much just to get better speed
Better speed and more functionality. Better ping, IPv6, better bands with less congestion. If you have other options, this might not make financial sense but if this is your best option, investing in a solution to make it better does make sense.
I meant 2ghz
Yes, I automatically read it that way.
these are meaningless numbers to the average homeowners who just want a good signal, and moving your modem all over the house, it's attached to your PC with a 10 foot umbilical [network cord], to move it around your house trying different locations would be impossible ???
Use 50ft electric cord and WiFi to check your signal. Use the phone app called HINT to get your RSRO, RSRQ and SiNR scores. Look for max SiNR (16 or higher).
unfocused discussion.
I fixed the focus. Try again. 😀
