I have the afrihost mobile thing in an area which is fully covered according to the coverage map.
I run it through a Huawei router and have a Yagi antenna on it as well. The router reports full signal.
However according to speedtest i only get 0.5 mb down and 0.7 up. the ping is also a little slow.

When i take the card to work , i get awesome speeds.

Ive sent AfriGuy a pm , but im sure you guys are pretty busy. Can someone maybe help or give any advice / hints?

Not sure if it's the last few hours mad-rush but I'm being denied a connection on both our iPhones. iPad seems to work.

Has anyone managed to hack 'n slash antenna's onto the E5331 ?
I made a "ghetto" version of an antenna last night which improved the speed quite drastically - but would like to purchase an antenna rather -_-

The whole friggin night. No data connection. I've done countless reboots and toggled the evil LTE switch. What's also interesting is that on my iPad, the Afrihost app just crashes if I try access those same two accounts.

Doing the same with my remaining 1.3GB. Running at a smooth 850-1000kB/s :cool:

Edit: Make that 1.3MB/s

My connection was unstable. A reboot to the mifi helped slightly but it definitely was slower then normal.
