Improving Internet Speed in Play with Alcatel Link Zone Router: User Experience

Please help. When I picked up the phone in Play, I got "free" internet. The lady in the living room suggested an Alcatel link zone router. I mainly care about wifi. The internet is very slow. I did the speed test, but I don't know if it is used for wifi at all. Currently, I also use the Internet from Orange with Huawei 3372 and the antenna from cybertech and the results are about 10 mbps. My contract is ending soon and I'm not going to extend it. I was hoping that the one from Play would be enough. My location is 78-600 Wałcz Ul. Przedmiejska, unfortunately I live on the ground floor. Please. For help

The speed of the internet changes at the window? What range does Play catch in your place of residence?

Similar data next to the window. I also took a screenshot from another application. I'm only interested in play, I want to quit from Orange. I was still thinking about buying another mobile device.

Thank the lady from the Play lounge for giving you the worst call ... Alcatel Link Zone. Give it back as soon as possible, do not pay 24 installments of 10 PLN = 240 PLN. It is worth the maximum final PLN 40. You want to use this Play at home, stationary. Put the card into LTE phone with this Network Cell Info application and do the test just like Orange. Show the parameters of the ECI signal, eNB BTS and speedtest. You have the perfect LTE coverage at Play, BTS at Chełmińska at EKO-Młyn. On it, all LTE2600, LTE1800, LTE2100, LTE800 bands and their aggregation. The optimal router with aggregation of three LTE bands, the minimum is the aggregation of two LTE bands. What is the Play offer? You can choose a mobile E5185 router for PLN 159 + installments 24x10 PLN / month or stationary B525 for PLN 259 + 24x10 PLN / month. They support the aggregation of 2 LTE bands. Alternatively, you can buy E5185 for around 250-300 PLN or for around 350-400 PLN B525, E5186. The antenna at this distance from the BTS is not needed.

Thank you for your answer, I have 2 cards in my phone, Play is a SIM 2 card. Unfortunately, my husband was subscribed to the company in November, so I can't give Alcatel back. I would like to buy a mobile router, e.g. huawei e5785 (is it ok?) Is what in the attachment is enough? Dot SIM 2

Connection with LTE1800 on BTS Play na Młynie. Signal parameters poor but good SINR, so the sector is not overloaded, what the speeds look like, make a speedtest and show the result. Also show the test when the phone is outside the window. Why mobile MiFi and what budget?

Generally, in this situation, you have 3 options: struggling with this pseudo Internet for 2 years, two years to buy a modem-router with LTE-A will probably improve the situation or the third - using Huawei E3372 and LTE2600 with forcing this band on the modem. Probably @ matek451 will have a more brilliant way out of this uncomfortable situation (check the operation of the operator's network before choosing an offer).

In the attachment, first (top) data transfer outside the window and wifi, then (bottom) data transfer and wifi at home. Wifi in both below 1. I would like to fit up to PLN 400 can be used. I would not like to connect cables but I would use Smart TV, phones, tablets and laptops.

By. If you are a colleague of Jarek, you should take Plus because it probably works fast in Wałcz, after all, on the BTS Chełmińska Plus it launched its LE2600 and earlier it had LTE1800Aero2 and LTE800Sferia. Somehow it does not go to it that Play offers State Unlimited House WiFi Internet card with 100GB is free, so Play customers often use it. Plus has its SmartDom and Play has this combined offer. He already knows that Play is pseudo internet for you and the situation is uncomfortable despite the fact that he has not yet seen speed tests on LTE1800, he does not know what the signal and speed parameters look like on other LTE bands. Just a clairvoyant. The only mistake so far is this Alcatel, but consultants in salons and not only Play, as a rule, push the worst equipment, those from Plus too. And as for the operators, Play has 3BTS in Wałcz with a complete set of LTE2600, LTE180, LTE2100 and LTE800 bands. Each of them has 40 (45) MHz resources in MIMO2x2. On BTS Chełmińska, each LTE band has 5 sectors. Plus uses 4 BTSs, 20MHz in MIMo2x2 with LTE1800Aero2, 3 LTE800Sferia with 5MHz in MIMO and one 20MHz in MIMO2x2 for LTE2600Plus. This is the one on the Mill and on it, 45MHz in MIMO2x2 is available, but only on three sectors. NetWorks has 3 BTSs with LTE1800 and LTE800 Orange and T-Mobile on one more. A cursory analysis already shows that in Wałcz it is Play that has the best-developed LTE network. Make the test outside, show the NCI screen and speedtest. And are these poor results in LTE, the Dual phone, so is the transmission on the Play card to the internet and is the second SIM card working on LTE in dual mode? What version of E3372, regular or HiLink, from Orange, has a simlock? DL / UL speeds at 1Mb / s / 0.38Mb / s, so they look like there is a funnel on these cards after exceeding the limit. What exactly is the offer from Play? And as for the router, stationary LTE-A also works on WiFi for 2.4 and 5GHz in AC mode, and they have Gigabit LAN ports. Mobile MiFi toys are not dedicated to work 24/7 as home routers.

As I wrote in Play, the internet was like an addition to 2 phone calls per company. I didn't buy it on purpose. After my adventures in Orange (here, fortunately, I got advice about buying an antenna from cybertech and somehow almost 2 years passed). Alcatel is my mistake. But I can always sell it and buy Huawei

Both measurements are taken on the phone, in the Huawei e3372 (bought from Play) there is only the Orange card (connected to the cybertech antenna)

The PERFEKT BOX Play offer includes https://www.play.pl/resources/pdf/2017/Regula...nej-FORMULA-PERFECT-BOX-dla-Firm_03112017.pdf on voice cards you have 10GB at full speed and then a DL funnel 1Mb / s UL 0.384Mb / s. On the internet card it is 100GB / month and if you exceed it, the funnel is 1 Mb / s / 0.384Mb / s. If you have this offer, the speeds on the voice card indicate the funnel. Insert the internet card into the phone instead of the Orange card and run the NCI and speedtest tests on it. Test at home and outside the window. Unless the limit is also used on this website. Modem E3372 from Play supported by the browser, address 192.168.8.1 or by the Play OnLine application?

Perfect box formula for companies - Internet to the office for porters

I figured it out myself and linked the rules. I also know that you have E3372 in the regular version from the topic about Orange.

In the attachment there are SIM 1 measurements (instead of Orange). This is confirmed by the agreement signed on November 4

Off the topic, I was shocked when I did the speed test with Orange (Huawei e3372 + cybertech antenna). I think something has improved.

It is still a card with a 1Mb / s funnel, i.e. with used data limit, in addition to 3G from BTS UMTS2100 HSPA + DC at the Młyn. I don't know why it connects to 3G and not LTE. Make a test on a card with no funnel, on the E3372 modem with forced LTE only, test at home and outside, show the PlayOnLine tab with the RSSI and CID parameters of BTS. Indoor and outdoor test. This is for starters.

I have a new billing period in a few days, why not try? I've probably used everything already

I put the Orange card into Alcatel. The lower ones in the house, the higher ones outside the window. And the data tab

Orange works as you can see OK. Play it when the limit returns.

Exactly, thank you for your help, there's nothing like a professional
