Hi
I got my self last week a 5g from three they sent me a modem which is Nr5103E I when went round the house testing where was the best signal the best i got was fair/good at the front window and speeds of 120mb down and 2mb up which was rubbish.
i took the modem outside in the back garden and my signal went to top end of good and sometimes excellent and speeds of 400mb to 60mb up!!
at this point I decided I need to get a external Antenna in my mind to get my speeds up so I got my self a A-XPOL-0001-V2-41 seen I read other said it works.
i got the antenna and again went around the house testing the best spots.. but this time I only was checking for signal and not internet speed
i found a spot in my house where i could get the cables too and to be able to link it in to my network
I found i got better upload speeds on the Antenna but still maxing at 120mb in download
Monday came around and my internal was super up and down and I found three was working on the mast in the area
speeds still stay the same... i decided to make the cables short on the antenna seen I had too much and I was thinking it might improve it... during this process by mistake i flipped the switch to internal antenna
and notice my downloads speeds 300mb and 14mb up and the signal was at fair! I was like WFT
if I switch it back and fore I can replicated it the change... this really pissed me off seen i made the cables shorter on the antenna so I can't send it back!.
I can only guess the Antenna is not picking up one of the bands? which is why I'm losing speed in my area?
