    Hello,

    I need help choosing an external antenna for D-Link 921 (T-Mobile)

    At the moment, it is losing coverage terribly and sometimes there is no internet for several minutes.

    Location:

    D-Link DWR 921 External Antenna: Best Options for T-Mobile & 5.5km Transmitter Distance

    D-Link DWR 921 External Antenna: Best Options for T-Mobile & 5.5km Transmitter Distance

    The distance to the transmitter in a straight line about 5.5 km

    Thank you in advance for your help :)

    According to BTS Search, you have the full range on T-mobile. I recommend a broadband antenna, e.g. DUAL X-CROSS 3G 4G LTE 2x19dBi ANTENNA ZTE HUAWEI. It also depends on the terrain but I have one at a distance of 7km through the forest and since they started 800MHz I have 20/10, and at only 1800MHz I had 20 / 0.8.
    Alternatively, you can do tests with several antennas for a given band but you would have to buy and then return the equipment.

    According to T-Mobil, I also have "FULL LTE" and I know how it looks on speedtest :)

    link ??

    is that what you mean?

    What is the offer from T-mobile? Poor router selection, the old DWR-921 does not support LTE bandagagging. There is no option to force a specific LTE band and signal diagnostics. The BTS NetWorks New Village 4A operates LTE800 T-Mobile and LTE1800NetWorks bands and their aggregation. Do you live in Chrosno? take a test on the T-Mobile card and LTE phone with the Network cell info and speedtest application. Show screen from the DATA tab, test at home at DWR-921 and outside. Plus, a BTS test for you. You need to check the operation of the LTE800 and LTE1800 bands. You choose the band for better transfers. the antenna from the cable is a broadband crap.

    I am on this Forum all the time so why were you in a hurry? This Chinese g ... oa salesman is a master in pushy, deceitful marketing. Auction descriptions are a piece of crap. Antennas of this type have a few dBi gain, usually the largest at 800-900MHz. After adding a 10m H155 no name cable, about 5dBi remains. Given 20dBi sucked from the finger, even the Chinese who produces these logarithmic antennas give 9-11dBi which is closer to the truth. But the most important thing is with such an DWR-921 antenna it can jump between LTE800 and LTE1800 frequencies, this router cannot force a specific LTE band. It is a monument that does not meet today's LTE network requirements. Choosing a broadband antenna for it is a bad joke.

    Do you have the option of exchanging this DWR-921 for B525, B529? You didn't write what the offer is, there are two without any limit. Old for 79.99 MAX and new for 45/55 PLN with 20 / 60Mbps speed limits.

    Well, I just do not have such a possibility (I have already talked to T-mobile) in the LTE unlimited range. And without LTE 60gb coverage

    You chose the next szajs, B593 u-12 from the German demobil, LTE3 modem cat. No selection of LTE bands. B593s-12 requires a FW change to one with a choice of bands. Equipment 5 years ago, at level DWR-921. Janusz take it like warm rolls and then cry. Traders buy toto at the price of electric waste and do business of a lifetime. E5180 from Play does not have external antenna connectors, completely unsuitable in most locations where the BTS is a long way.

    After all, I gave routers with LTE-A or B525 because B529 is difficult to buy and more expensive but not better. B525 works with the application http://www.mediafire.com/file/6164xqf8az6ju81/Huawei_Manager_PL.apk, in which you will force specific LTE bands or LTE-A aggregations on it. But the tests I asked for earlier are key. Without them, the purchase of equipment, blind antennas is a failure. Even when buying an LTE router you need to choose equipment with the option of band selection and with antenna connectors. E.g. B315s-22 and like E5180 is the version of As-22 from Plus, with antenna connectors. Both work with LTEWatchH, Toolbox and you can force specific LTE bands in them

    Here you have a cheap LTE stationary router that meets the requirements, because I see savings :)

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around selecting an external antenna for the D-Link DWR-921 router to improve T-Mobile coverage, particularly at a distance of 5.5 km from the transmitter. Users recommend various antennas, including the DUAL X-CROSS 3G 4G LTE 2x19dBi antenna, while expressing concerns about the DWR-921's limitations, such as its inability to support LTE band aggregation and specific band selection. Some participants suggest testing different antennas and routers, like the Huawei B525, which allows for band selection and has better performance capabilities. The conversation highlights the importance of conducting signal diagnostics and testing to determine the best equipment for optimal LTE performance.
