Morning everyone,
I've been using 4G broadband for a while to power my home wifi network, this is for phones, and TVs to use for Netflix etc and working from home for me and the wife. I've got a Mikrotik LHGLTE6 on my wall and I have line of sight with a cell tower, it only shows as Band 3 on cellmapper.
about 12 months ago the speed dropped from 70+mb to just about 25 on a good day. I've been down the support route at Three and they initially said it was my contract but after getting a new contract it didn't improve (they refunded this and let me keep the new router)
if I were to move my dish around a bit and find a different cell to line up with could I see improvements?
This is the signal strength on the Mikrotik and a Speed test
