[Solved] Huawei B2368-66 Router: Seeking User Experiences & Compatibility with External Modems

hello, screen from the B2368-66 interface. extended in the annex, location Kleszczów voivodeship Lesser Poland

Very strange CID, it's LTE1100, band aggregation doesn't work. Signal satisfactory. BTS probably Leśna 69 in Zabierzów if it works or Rudawa but this CID is strange.

why strange How to find out which BTS? need to translate sim to phone? I have this program network cell info but it only shows me the bts t-mobile that I have in my phone. I am closer to BTS in Aleksandrowice, do you think that if I would set up a directional antenna for it, it would be better?

Strange because B2368 does not provide eNBID or CID in some simple decoded form and it is difficult to determine which mast we are connecting to, especially since it has an omnidirectional antenna and can connect to "anything". I take it this way that I make a round around the surrounding masts and check what PCIs are on them (number of sectors) and based on the PCI indications (Physical Cell ID - PCI) from the LTE Status panel on B2368 I define the BTS with -em link.
If I were you, I would have listened to my mothers friend and took a ZTE WF830. B2368 is good in the city (and not like Play suggests in the countryside where directional antennas are the basis). I own B2368 and I convert it into directional antennas, but if you don't own it, you won't do it.

I'm just wondering if I take the directional it won't be worse? I think not because the transmitter I would point it to is the same as in the attachment

@ matek451 do you have a link to the antenna specification of this ZTE WF830 somewhere ?? ... on ZTEpoland's facebook there is an entry that this antenna is 180 degrees ...

In the location where you live, you have access to a large number of BTSs, but the specific BTS you gave is on the 242 Mbit radio line, which is very thin. I looked around your area and you do not have a very different option because other BTSs or not visible and as visible on the same crap radio line. You can also try BTS Morawica Brzoskwinia but first check if you have a set of bands there or only 800 and 1800.

there are also two bts at the airport in Balice, first I have to replace the antenna with a directional one and then work. You can get more help and information here on the forum than on Play. greetings

That's right. These two are already on optical fibers and you shouldn't aim but the ZTE WF 830 antenna may not be enough because I don't think it is more directional than the Cybertech one. It is also important how the sectors are spaced and whether they are shining in your direction ... it may turn out that you will be between the sectors and you will not catch a good signal. Cybertech has 30 degrees of radiation and when you set the antenna on Balice, you gently enter this mast with a 242Mbit radio link. If I were you, I would try B715 + Cybertech from Play for testing and see how it works.

In fact, ZTE provides a horizontal beam angle of 180 degrees. I have only one BTS nearby so it is difficult to check how it looks in practice. Of course, the choice of B715 is correct, so far the choice of BTSs from LTE2600 is very limited, Zabierzów-Śląska but through forests and the one in Balice.
