    B315 works with http://www.lte-anbieter.info/ltewatch/count_huawei.php?Datei=ltewatch_h or http://www.mediafire.com/file/1yz26m6u8gfl16n/E5186_Toolbox_latest_v0.9.zip In these programs after logging in in them, the B315 can force LTE bands, they also show the LTE and CID BTS signal parameters. What is T-Mobile's offer? The nearest BTS NetWorks is Milewski 10, it operates LTE1800NetWorks and LTE800 T-Mobile and their aggregation. You force LTE1800 and LTE800 in turn, check the speed and signal and CID parameters of the BTS, show screens. The choice of antenna depends on it, B315 does not support LTE band aggregation.

    LTE800 from Milewski overloaded, signal parameters good. On the LTE1800 sufficient signal, average speeds, you can try to improve the signal parameters using the Dual LTE antenna at 1800MHz but it is difficult to predict how it will improve the speed. It is worth checking them under BTS in your direction, for testing an LTE phone with the Network Cell Info application, connects to LTE1800 and check the speed with the correct signal parameters and these will depend on the load of "your" sector. This way you can check what to expect with your antenna.

    Speeds depend not only on the signal parameters but largely on the number of users using a given sector on BTS. There are three on it, you use the third one. Orange with T-Mobile share the LTE1800NetWorks bandwidth, 15MHz in MIMO2x2 and DL up to 112Mbps. Test under BTS on your direction to use the same sector, because LTE1800 has priority over LTE800 but has a smaller range that connects you with this band. Test near BTS - signal parameters will be optimal and speed will depend only on the number of users in the sector. Test at this time because it is an internet peak. In this way you will get data on the maximum speeds to be achieved on LTE1800 in Orange from this BTS. If they are much better than those you have at home, you buy a directional antenna for this band. Of course you have no guarantee that they will last. T-Mobile is now selling an unlimited offer with hardware for little money and the number of users is growing. This is evident in the LTE800, which has a longer range and is already clogging, DL

    And what do you think if I bought a router with aggregation and combined the 800 and 1800 bands would be a significant improvement?

    Have you checked LTE2600? The LTE800 is clogged so aggregation of the LTE1800 band with it will not contribute much.

    I was on Saturday towards BTS on my direction and it turns out that even the 1800 band is clogged and now I don't know what to do about it: c

    See how 3G works on B315, UMTS2100HSPA + DC T-Mobile also works on Milewski's BTS. In Turku, these NetWork BTSs are from you practically in one direction, you could try to connect with those further on Polna 5 and on the chimney of the Adamów power plant.

    So I would have to ride a little evening again like that? Sory, that I didn't write back earlier, but somehow I forgot.

Topic summary

✨ The discussion revolves around optimizing the settings of the Huawei B315s-22 router for LTE internet on T-Mobile in Turku, specifically on Radiant Street. Users suggest utilizing tools to force specific LTE bands (LTE1800 and LTE800) to improve signal quality and speed. Recommendations include testing signal strength near the base transceiver station (BTS) and considering the purchase of a directional antenna for better reception. The conversation highlights the impact of network congestion on speeds and the potential benefits of upgrading to a router that supports LTE band aggregation. Users also explore the performance of 3G connections in the area, noting that T-Mobile's network is heavily utilized.

FAQ

TL;DR: On LTE1800 (15 MHz, MIMO 2x2), theoretical download tops 112 Mbps; “Speeds depend not only on signal.” Force bands, test near the Milewski 10 BTS, and prefer LTE1800 over congested LTE800. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907717]

Why it matters: This FAQ helps T-Mobile users in Turku Radiant Street squeeze stable speed from a Huawei B315s-22 without wasting money.

Quick Facts

How do I optimize a Huawei B315s-22 on T-Mobile in Turku Radiant Street?

Lock LTE1800 and LTE800 in turn using LTEWatch_H or E5186 Toolbox. Record RSRP/RSRQ, CID, and speed for each. Compare results at home versus near the Milewski 10 BTS. Prefer LTE1800 if LTE800 is congested. Consider a directional 1800 MHz antenna only if testing shows gains. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907517]

Which LTE bands are available nearby, and which should I choose?

The closest site at Milewski 10 runs LTE1800 NetWorks and LTE800. Start with LTE1800 for capacity, then compare with LTE800. The site supports aggregation, but your B315 cannot use it. Pick the band that tests faster and steadier for your sector. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907517]

Is LTE800 worth using here if it feels slow?

Not usually. LTE800 from Milewski is overloaded even with good signal. Shift to LTE1800, which has smaller range but more usable capacity. Improve LTE1800 signal with a dual 1800 MHz antenna only after testing. Load, not bars, limits speed most. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907630]

What download speed can LTE1800 deliver in theory at this site?

LTE1800 NetWorks provides 15 MHz with MIMO 2x2 and downlink up to 112 Mbps. Each tower has three sectors; you are on the third. Real speed depends on how many users share that sector. “Test near BTS for peak potential.” [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907717]

Should I buy a router with carrier aggregation to combine LTE800 and LTE1800?

Hold off. Because LTE800 is clogged here, aggregating LTE1800 with LTE800 adds little. First verify whether LTE2600 is available; without it, CA may not help. Band quality beats band quantity when one component is saturated. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907988]

If LTE2600 isn’t available, what’s my fallback?

Use LTE1800 if it tests acceptably, or try 3G on UMTS2100 HSPA+ DC with the B315. Also test alignment toward other sites, such as Polna 5 or the Adamów power-plant chimney. Pick the path that yields steadier evening speeds. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16912886]

Which external antenna works best for this case?

Choose a directional dual-antenna tuned for 1800 MHz only after field tests show LTE1800 improves near the BTS. Antennas fix weak signal, not sector congestion. Expect uncertain gains if the sector is busy at peak times. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907630]

How do I test correctly before buying an antenna?

  1. Go toward the Milewski 10 BTS and run tests during the evening peak.
  2. Lock LTE1800, measure RSRP/RSRQ, and run speed tests.
  3. Compare near-BTS speeds with home results; buy a directional 1800 MHz antenna only if the gap is large. “Test near BTS—speed hinges on users.” [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907717]

Does the Huawei B315s-22 support carrier aggregation?

No. The B315 cannot aggregate LTE bands. Use software to force one band at a time and optimize that link. If you need CA, consider different hardware after testing proves it helps. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907517]

What tools help me force bands and read cell details on the B315?

Use LTEWatch_H or the E5186 Toolbox. After logging in, you can lock LTE1800 or LTE800 and see signal metrics and the serving cell’s CID. Capture screenshots for each mode to compare performance. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907517]

Why are my speeds fine near the tower but poor at home?

Load varies by sector and time. Near the BTS, signal is optimal, so speed reveals sector congestion. At home, weaker LTE1800 signal and the same crowded sector reduce throughput. Evening peaks exaggerate this effect. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907717]

Could even LTE1800 be congested for me?

Yes. A user test toward the BTS showed LTE1800 was also clogged. In that edge case, try UMTS2100 HSPA+ DC or aim at alternative sites. Manage expectations during peak hours. [Elektroda, Ignik, post #16912727]

How does 3G perform here if LTE is unusable?

The B315 can connect to UMTS2100 HSPA+ DC from Milewski. Reported results looked modest due to heavy T‑Mobile load in Turku. Use it as a fallback when LTE sectors saturate in the evening. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16929119]

What mobile app should I use for on-foot testing?

Use Network Cell Info on an LTE phone. Walk or drive toward the target sector, connect to LTE1800, and record signal and speed. This shows realistic potential before you invest in an antenna or new router. [Elektroda, matek451, post #16907630]
