Hey Guys
Hoping to pick the brains of the collective once again. I posted recently about a house move where we are going to struggle to get FTTP so I'm looking for alternatives.
See the previous thread here: https://www.ispreview.co.uk/talk/th...lose-to-o2-mast-will-there-be-problems.39793/
Having posted on this Forum I got some great advice from you guys and I've taken the plunge and got myself n NR5103E off ebay. Got myself a Smarty Unlimited SIM and I've got it all set up. Its up in the attic (highest point in the house obviously) and looking at the Cellular Data Info Page I think my numbers are pretty good? What do you guys think?
I have no 5G signal in my area - been on the Three Coverage checker and so I'm relying on 4G only. As advised on this Forum I have selected the bands to aggregate like this:
The Cell Tower closest to me is this one and it's got Three on it - I can see it from the house too - it's just up the hill - Its labelled 6692 on Cell mapper and should have Bands 1,3,20 & 28 on it
The problem is that I'm only getting about 15 - 18Mbps download speeds! Really poor! But interestingly I'm getting circa 45 - 48Mbps upload speeds.
What am I doing wrong guys?
