For this method, we're going to use the LTEview app (by @ProAsm) to switch from Rains default band B3 to B38.
You require these in order for the band switch to work.
1. A compatible Huawei router (Supports TDD B38 or B41 2500/2600Mhz).
Huawei routers that will work (Not all are listed):
B525s-65a * B38 2600Mhz & B41 2500Mhz
B525s-23a * B38 2600Mhz
B315s-22 * B38 2600Mhz
B315s-936 * B41 2500Mhz
B535-932 * B38 2600Mhz
2. External antenna/s.
3. A Windows PC
A few important tips
* Not all routers are compatible with Rains B38 TDD band. A Google search with your routers model and the word "bands" will give you an answer.
*B38 DOES NOT PENETRATE easily. If you have the standard flat antennas, you may need to move the router itself to the window.
* You also may have to move the router in all directions to catch the signal. North window, south window, and so on.
* If you leave the router in the middle of the room, you will not get a signal.
* Lastly, not all towers broadcast B38. Rains default band is B3, which is always congested. That's why most users have speed issues.
