Hi all,
I struggle to find best approach for backup internet connection we need asap. It will be positioned in the comercial building, with limited options for any works. This is big open space on a first floor of the building. Construction is typical shopping centre like, corridor in the middle and offices on the left and right. Lots of glass and other obstructions. In one word-nightmare.
Thing is....my mobile phone can go up to 150/20mbps via Lebara sim on 4G. Which I am happy with. But I had RUTX14 for a day and when connected with it via Wi-Fi speed test only go up to 60 or 100mbps at best (depends on how I position those tiny antennas).
I was really surprised to see it to work slower than a mobile phone....ideas?
So, what I am trying to figure out is if I can get a stable network connection for few users with lets say TRB500 and Poynting 5G-XPOL-1 but...installed Indoor only when my mobile phone has a good enough signal. I could try and dream about catching 5G as it seems like there is EE mast nearby, but this probably will not work without antenna installed outside.
Could you guys advice please? I am clueless in regards of how much signal improvement I can get from low entry antennas like that. Or should I go with cheaper router and better antenna? Any advices? All i need from router is some remote management and ethernet port. No wi-fi needed, external AP will be used.
