Huawei B818 Router: Band Aggregation Details for LTE 800, 1800, 2100 & 2600 Bands

Question

Good morning ,

I have a Huawei b818 router and I would like to know what specific bands it aggregates. On the manufacturer's website and on the Internet, I managed to find that it aggregates 4, but I do not know which ones. The router connects to the BTS on which I have the LTE 800, 1800, 2100 and 2600 bands.

Not four, up to five on DL. There you have everything listed -->

Using the aggregation of four as an example independent bands - for example: CA_1A-3A-7A-20A CA = means aggregation: carrier aggregation 1A - aggregation of one carrier from band B1 - in this case just band B1 as carrier/baseband with three other carriers (bands). 3A - band (carrier) aggregated B3 7A - band (carrier) aggregated B7 20A - band (carrier) aggregated B20 If there is the letter 'A', it means aggregation with other bands - in simple terms. If there is a letter C, it means that two carriers are aggregated within one of the bands, for example: CA_1A-3C 1A - base band (carrier) B1 3C - B1 aggregation with two carriers from within B3 band There you can study in more detail -->

What operator and where do you use on B818 and which BTS?

grzegorzstr2020 · Answer

Orange So far, I can't decipher from the website given earlier what frequencies it aggregates, as if frequency codes are given and the frequency itself.

m.jastrzebski · Answer

The above frequencies are bands B20, B3, B1, B7

grzegorzstr2020 · Answer

Yes, I know that B7 is 2600 and so on, it's about what is given on the page above in the specification link in the first answer. I want to know what bands the router specifically aggregates and that information is not clear to me

I have one more question about the external antenna. I currently have an antenna https://all-ant.pl/antena-do-LTE-4g-3g-l4g-mimo-2x15dbi-konfigurator-mapa-zasiegu

Would like to change to one of these

https://telkob.pl/pl/p/Antena-ATP-15-MIMO-Pasmo-790-2690-MHz./67

https://www.wisp.pl/p7574,qupanel-lte-mimo-4x4.html

Does the exchange make sense? The current antenna and the one I am going to buy are directed towards btsa, the station is visible in a straight line about 3km. I have the best current results by disabling four-band aggregation and using an external antenna signal on 2600

matek451 · Answer

The antenna is selected after testing individual LTE bands with B818 outdoors and shows screenshots from the Android / Windows application for band management and signal diagnostics on HiLink Huawei, and every evening speedtest. You have a broadband antenna, so for comparison, the tests of these bands with it set to this BTS.

Your antennas have around 10dBi of gain (each), those from the links have gains well below 10dBi, so it's not worth it. Interesting. Show signal parameters for all bands individually (800/1800/2100/260), plus evening speed-tests for each band.

grzegorzstr2020 · Answer

Tests at different times come out practically the same, it is a signal only from external antennas, sometimes there are better results if I set one external and one internal antenna for the signal (both option) and additionally aggregation, but this is sporadic and the results are up to 70 mb, if you want to exceed this value is only one outer band

matek451 · Answer

The signal parameters on all bands are correct, LTE2100 is practically unloaded, so check LTE2600 + 2100 aggregation and then LTE2600 + 2100 + 1800 and see if it turns on, what is the program from the screen, it has the ability to force bands on b818?

grzegorzstr2020 · Answer

This is the LTE manager program from the App Store because I have an iPhone, although I checked the correctness of the reading with Android and it is correct. The app has the ability to force four bands and it works well. One photo shows aggregations from an external antenna, only the internal one is expensive, the weaker signal, but despite the fact that the router shows aggregations, it probably only works on internal antennas?
