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

Question

hey, I join the topic earlier, I wrote that I have 1.9 km to the nearest BTS, only play has 2600lte there, Orange and T-mobile on Networks! 2100lte the highest band, so my contract is over and from today I have Play on Huawei B818. So far I had a chimney antenna geared towards this Networks! but...

Exactly what antenna do you have? Signal parameters are very good with this window. Especially LTE 2600 has hardly anything to fault. Only the SINR is average on all bands. LTE 2100 also at a good level. LTE 1800 is also ok, but LTE800 is usually clogged and it is the same in this case.

Then connect this Sorensen and repeat the tests on LTE2600, LTE2100, LTE1800 LTE800 does not interest you because it is carrion anyway, for this you need 2 SMA-TS9 connectors if you had a router with SMA .. Then LTE2600 + 1800 + 2100 aggregation, use HManager on Android or LTEInspecteur for Windows, in them you can force specific LTE bands to aggregate. The antenna works at 1800-2100MHz but so far it does not bother because the signal at 2600MHz is OK outside. Don't buy a new antenna for now.

So you are relatively close to BTS. B818 has TS9 connectors. This BTS Wiejca63B has aggregation access across all bands. So I am not surprised by your results.

Download, or what the name sounds like, is responsible for downloading. Upload - sending. A DOWNLOAD is enough to use the Internet. UL is useful for people who send all sorts of larger files, have some Yt channel etc. With the results you have, which is about 100Mb / s, you can easily use the Internet, not to mention your family. Just a matter of data limit.

The connectors will be needed even for the 1800-2600MHz antenna, if you buy it, you also risk nothing.

No, no, you didn't get it - it's not that good ... ;) You've changed the distribution of the electric field around your chimney (and you have options ... ) - a typical case on roofs and chimneys.

Everything you could - did - checked the continuity of the cables / short circuits with a meter. When it comes to RF parameters, i.e. attenuation or WFS as a function of frequency, you cannot do it easily at home, without measuring equipment. While pulling the cable, the cable could be slightly damaged, so it could have changed parameters such as attenuation, impedance and WSFs, But, it works for you, so the damage, if any, could be slight. The antenna ports in such routers are not perfect, the connectors embedded on the cables also do not usually have ideal parameters, and the antennas can also have any parameters, so the differences of one or two decibels when changing the cables on the ports may be as natural as possible. Just as you twist the router together and the antenna through the antenna cable can be anything. How you twist twice you wouldn't be surprised if the signal levels were different. The connection with the connector itself may result in 1 ... 2 ... 3dB signal losses on high bands, if the connector itself is of poor quality and the connector seating is far from perfect or it is simply too poorly twisted. Only that it will not work, because the signals received by the antennas are constantly changing - to compare well, you would have to power such an antenna system from your own generator and antenna. .

What time did you do speed tests? These are counted in the evening hours (19-22)

Range1 · Accepted Answer

It is in the evening hours that the load on the bands is checked when the traffic in the air is the highest. Antenna

Range1 · Accepted Answer

It is enough that AUTO without an antenna combined with aggregation of several bands and with an antenna, e.g. on 1800 itself, and you have an answer in the form of a weaker transfer.

For the antenna, buy a decent 5-meter cable, eg LMR400

lalek63 · Answer

no antenna now, the B818 itself and its internal.

Raycoreti · Answer

I am also without an antenna, but he is on his way to me. We have similar results when it comes to transfer speeds. Also, as in mine, in your case, I recommend the dual antenna in oblique polarization 1800-2600Mhz Link

lalek63 · Answer

ok, write the exact name, I will search, buy and install it when it stops blowing like now for the last 3 days.
I downloaded this program, LTEInspecteur, if I need to, I will take screenshots, I don't know what's setting there.
ok, I can already see this antenna, I will wait for the opinions of people who wrote me what to do, and I will definitely buy something to use the possibilities of this router to the maximum, because if I put it on the roof, it will be again in min. I will be doing something in this area for 2 years.

Range1 · Answer

Enter what location it is. You can skip the jammed 800 band. You can see you are close to BTS.

lalek63 · Answer

but the inputs are different, I have B315 to Sorensen and there are SMA inputs and B818 are tiny. Added after 3 [minutes]: location, my house bottom right, comes out 1.9km.

matek451 · Answer

I corrected, buy two connectors socketo-sma-z.html

lalek63 · Answer

and the sending will remain at this level? will not be stretched by 30? to make it clearer, at home, usually 4 people are sitting on the net and watching something, playing, etc.

lalek63 · Answer

ok, I will buy these connectors because most cables probably end with SMA anyway. 300Gb in Play, I had no choice, I could get Orange 999Gb but the speed would be the same.

lalek63 · Answer

I bought connectors, maybe they will be in 3 days.

Raycoreti · Answer

I have a similar tariff of 200 GB in Play with the possibility of adding 100 GB / 20 PLN transfer. Have you watched how much data are you using? Have you recently had an offer?

lalek63 · Answer

from today, I had Orange 250 before. But these 300 are enough for me, because I also have a contract for phones with 80 Gb for a year, and even at home I will not connect to the modem as before.

Raycoreti · Answer

I switched to mobile for the first time, but I hope that the 200-300 GB will be enough. At most, it will be combined with prepaids :D If you have 80Gb for phones, it's elegant, it's always less used main transfer.

lalek63 · Answer

I will tell you the situation from 2 years ago, I bought this antenna, what I wrote, I attached the mast to the chimney, the laptop on the lap on the roof, I on the ladder, ltewatch attached, this bigmode, set the antenna, look at the laptop, parameters of super 69, probably the most important one, I turn on Constant. I go down, suddenly the result deteriorates to 108. I go back nothing, I turn the mast again, it's good again, I turn, I go down, after a while again 108. Kuzwa wanted to have something to correct, and to stand on a ladder on a steep roof, with a laptop in one hand, a few activities at the same time with the other, it's not too cool. And so I wonder what was done, whether it was a fake antenna, or whether it transferred me to other stations, because further in the same direction there are other stations, type 1 km away. But I wanted to fight it further, I lived to see the end of the contract, I hope it will be better now and I will play with my son in votive offerings on quality in the 21st century.

If there was any internet connection, he would take it immediately, but I do not have this option.

hello, yesterday came the connectors and I have tests from this sorensen. Take a professional look, because for me a layman, the main parameters are better, but the maximum speeds from the sill are better on the LTE / A settings.

Another question that bothers me is whether 2 years ago I did the cables well myself, soldering-crimping, somehow can I check it? then I checked with a meter and it was fine, but then I dragged these cables through the chimney through small holes, I could break something.
And when I was changing the cables in the order of connection on the back of the router, the change in parameters was by 2.

lalek63 · Answer

Gentlemen, what antenna to make the most of my router and network capabilities? I showed all the data.

lalek63 · Answer

I did a while before posting

lalek63 · Answer

oki, I will order this antenna, and you will explain why the router on the windowsill had better results on speeds, although the tests with the current antenna had better RSSI and RSRP rates?

lalek63 · Answer

but there are identical ltewatch forced settings on lte / A and better results than on air

Range1 · Answer

And how do you know if these were connections with the SAME BTS on air and without? Have you checked eNBID and E-CID that you are sure?
