Antenna for Huawei B525s LTE Router - T-Mobile: Band 2600, 1800, 800 & Network Cell Info in Warsaw

Hello,

I have been bothering you earlier in this topic:
https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/topic3415706.html#16935243

My location has not changed ul. Wojdyńska in Warsaw, crappy internet from Orange after the cable to max 2-3 mbs DL and 0 UL. Previously I tested LTE from Orange, all in the above topic. You have advised me against a small data limit, and the offer from Orange itself was not attractive.
Now there has been a change, I got an interesting offer from T-Mobile for a company without limits and for free with a Huawei B525s router. I decided to take this offer but for the time being to the test. I will post screenshots LTEWatch, speed tests and Network Cell info below.

Band 2600:


Band 1800:


Band 800:


Network Cell Info:



On the router I have a range of 1 bar so bad. I need an antenna and see how it will strengthen this internet and if it will work better than the Orange cable. Previously, I chose this antenna. Is she still the best choice for these parameters?

This antenna will be ok
At 2600 the signal is very weak, at 1800 better but also very weak, at 800 sufficient, but this band is normally jammed. Where did the router stand during testing?
1800 is Warsaw Skarbek z Gór 57
800 is Warsaw Malborska 51
However, if something was wrong with the antenna, you have 14 days to return.

Router stood by the window, only once again I am surrounded by the forest. I do not have a phone range I hope that the antenna will help, what to order this or something better, look for other parameters?

Order this. Is good.

Antenna arrived, unfortunately I assembled it at night so I screwed it on the roof, there was no way to set it. Stands set up "by eye" and in the worst sense of the word. I still have 1 range on the router (Is this just a range inside)? As if 6mb is not bad, but now I would like to look for the best option. So I have a few questions tomorrow before setting up.

1. The 2600 band looks best. Should I impose LTE bandwidth or set it up automatically?
2. On which BTS should I set the antenna? To fly in turn?
3. How to set the antenna best? Should I slightly move and check in LTEWatch dBm? What do RSSI and RSRP mean and which value should be given the most attention when setting the antenna?





@makosuu

In a word, tragedy. It's time to twist the antenna because it's LTE2600 from Zdziarska clogged, LTE1800 from Płochocińska 65 and also lime. Set up the following brands one at a time, first Okólna 45, then Duża 1 and Piłsudskiego 200, and finally at the Rembelszczyzna-Jana Kazimierza 578. Search for the least-loaded BTS. After setting, you check the CID and compare it with the data and the map of btsearch.pl. As I wrote, let's try Play.

As the signal will be strong, the router will select 2600. You do not need to choose bandwidth, it's best to leave the car, it should jump on 2600 + 1800 yourself.

Exactly. You check the direction of BTS on the map and set the antenna. It can not be otherwise.

Test other BTSs as advised @ mother451 because it looks really good.

Hi

question quickly, I only had a moment to play this antenna again. When setting the antenna for a specific BTS, it catches me very distant BTS. For example, the BTS on the trek from the mountains is relatively new and I wanted to start tests from it, instead it grabs me BTS Atrium targówek (181453) or IKEA (181823) which are very distant, performance is worse than bad

RSRP still below -102. Tomorrow I will have all day for testing. My question: what do I do wrong that it catches such extremely distant BTS?

You have to "feel it" and turn the antenna accordingly. I do not know how to explain it to you otherwise. You need to get a little bit.

I've combined and it looks pretty poor. I very often catch these distant BTS, i.e. IKEA and Targówek. I managed to catch bts on zawiślańskiej. But the quality of the connection does not knock me down, or I am doing something wrong, or nothing comes to me.

Zawiślańska 16Mb DL and about 10 UL. I can not beat RSRP below -100 dBm, and from what I read it depends on the connection and it would be good to catch -80 / -90 dBm.

Tomorrow I will try Brands if it does not rain. Any additional advice on setting this antenna?
