Good morning guys, wondering if you folks here would have any insight to help make my setup better, please let me explain. We have a family holiday home in Portugal and unfortunately the internet (originally via landline) was atrocious. We upgraded contract last summer but they moved us over to Mobile broadband. It is worse than the landline. I have tried many different solutions to try getting the best out of our situation. I bought a 3rd party router (which works great for WiFi coverage) and from reviews online the Poynting 5G Xpol v2. I tested this for around 3 weeks and never got any better signal or speeds so I never really got a solution to our problem. I wanted to come here and ask would anyone recommend a 4G(5G antenna) that would get us even a slight performance jump, or even better signal down to the router inside.
It is possible I may not have got the Poynting to work correctly but I read all the instructions and made sure to activate external antenna on the router. I should say that I am willing to upgrade to a 5G router to future proof the internet going forward but in the area we live 5G isn't available for the moment.
Thanks alot guys.
