I’ve had this thing for a couple of weeks now and it’s been in the same exact spot, on the edge of window sill (move it a millimetre and the speed will go down significantly). A couple of days ago, the signal figures suddenly dropped quite a bit and I had to twist it a few mm to get back to the original figures, which weren’t that great to start with (I’m about 9 or 10 miles away from the mast, but when I get my best signal, I’m averaging 50 - 70 mbps) .
Since then, I’ve had to move it a few times to get my signal levels back, and now it’s messing me about even more by aggregating to band 3 (I’m on EE, by the way), instead of band 7, which is the fastest band for me. Also, sometimes I’ll restart it, and the signal will bounce back, without me having to move it, and it’ll stay there for a good while, lulling me into a false sense of security, and then it’ll drop to 3 bars LTE+, so I’ll try changing bands with Huactrl and then it might go to 4 bars, which as good as it gets, and the cycle starts again.
I’d appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this for me. Is it the router? Is it EE farting about, or is it just that I’m miles away from the mast and the signal is losing its grip now and again?
