Is the Reea Nursery base station in Craighall Park, JHB active or not?

Hi

The tower you connect to is definitely in a valley and is not very high on the tower (15m). Your elevation seems to be a lot higher. Maybe try to get the antenna lower? There are also a number of trees which may get in the way.

The only place I can drop the antenna down to is on the opposite side of the house, so that won't work. And yes, there are lost of big trees in the suburb.

I think ultimately the signal I have is the signal I have. At least it is a bit better than the 384k DSL I used to use.

Hi brettlewis!

If you have moved your antenna over the weekend, please provide feedback?

I will post again once I've tried the directional antenna - I didn't have a chance this weekend.

My signal has been hovering in the upper 20%'s for a long while - in the last week or so its hopped up to upper-30's and sometimes over 40%. Sadly though my ping times and throughput seem to have dropped off noticeably.

Can anyone shed any light on what's changed in the Craighall Park area?

Bump.
