[Solved] Title: Huawei B818 on Play Network: Best Antenna for 2600 LTE & 1.9 km BTS Distance

1. The parameters of the signal are shown by the router as perfect - with such parameters, even the QAM256 could turn on if it was on the station. So there is no speed limit on this side.

2. The reserve on the signal is so large that even after switching to the antennas, the internal parameters of the signals are probably so good that then there are no speed limits either. Similarly for the Sorensen antenna.

3. Since the signals are very good, it looks like the station is a limitation. Maybe it's a question of bandwidth load, or maybe the operator is limiting heavy users to have greater bandwidth and flexibility.

4. You work in aggregation - basically you should check what are the solo speeds on individual bands, because it is not known how the aggregations on individual bands are arranged.

Also take into account that with high loads BTS and many heavy users hanging on it, you can expect high variability of the instantaneous bandwidth load, which may result in significant differences in the speed measurement depending on the measurement moment - from very small values to very large values.

So, in order to deduce something meaningful, one would have to make a series of measurements and extract some statistics about the antennas from them. But, the transfer is good, so I don't think there is anything to complain about.

This radio, everything is here and now, nothing is given permanently ...

and I will check the speed, because from the router with a cable I have a net to the modem and from it in the chat and I found that from the modem it is about 20 mega faster than directly from the router, because the signal is weaker.

"from modem"?

What kind of modem is this - some AP?

it stays as it is, but I still can't understand how the modem on the windowsill achieves higher speeds than the antenna.

One can probably only say c'est la vie ...

It is faster on DL on the windowsill, because LTEInspector also confirms it. But there is a gigantic difference on the windowsill in minus on UL. Since the signal parameters on the sill are borderline, there is one explanation for me - BTS cuts you on DL on external antennas as heavy user heavy caliber, knowing how well you have excellent parameters on the antennas and how much you could pull from them.

This is a router with 100Mbps LAN / WAN ports, so you actually have less than 100Mbps after it (maybe ninety several), if there is also something wrong with the cable connecting it to the LTE router, then the 20Mbps on the LAN port could be less. Unless you connect to it via wifi, that's another story.

So, anyway, you do not need more than 100Mbps with LTE, unless you could effectively use the LTE router's wifi at speeds> 100Mbps.

This limitation is on the Huawei - TP-Link connection.

Sped tests are rather on the cable, because on wifi it can "float" and change the results ...
