Spectrum Analyzer

I was under the impression that this is impossible.

Does this work on LTE modems? or any other devices or just android
LTE modems / routers … depending if it can PCI LOCK .
 
Lol … you could get one that’s second hand …

uhm … @jbroo do you think it’s wise getting one ? Seeing that it can’t PCI lock
Found one, still in its box, if I can get it sorted this week, this weekend I can go and set it up and test. I just need to see if I can find connectors if I need to shorten the cables. The cables also have a loss.

That’s great news … hope you get things sorted for her bro … you will get rewarded big time when you get that stats right
 
Okay so I got an XPOL-6, testing locally with my Rain LTE, with a Huawei B315s-935, and on it's external antennas I get about 10/16Mbps, with the XPOL , 20/22Mbps

Well this is an improvement right?? You don't need to shorten the cables. I had virtually no loss on the stock 10/15m cable. And if you don't crimp your connectors on well you will have more loss from that.

Do some precise aiming and testing now til you find the sweet spot. Your directional antenna will be much more immunne to noise that the built in ones or an omni, by the way.

Well the true test will come this weekend.
 
And just to illustrate a point, tonight's stats - same PCI, same signal, crappy speeds. You win, you lose.Screenshot_20210818-223456_1.jpg

Oh I see … I used the other one to change bands and so forth …

But that’s when I was still struggling on 4g until I got a tower …
Which app did you use? Also Celluar-Pro is pretty sweet. I want an app that can show MIMO

Guys no luck the XPOL isn't making a difference to the SINR, nor the RSRQ vs the mANT
RSRP went form -87 to -80 or -79
 
The same tower ? Any other tower you can try ?
I have tried 2 now, even changed bands, so the one tower gives the best speeds, but sadly the SINR I can't get it above 2dB. On B38 the speeds are a bit worse than B3, but the upload is really really bad, like 0.24Mbps

Sadly can't connect to 483, 47 , but this is the situation now

There must be a tower somewhere show us what towers are around her area …

I can remember connecting to a tower that wasn’t even covering the area I was in but because I had a router that can PCI lock I locked into it and I got a solid 5 or 6 megs consistent

Leaving me with poor signal strength but good speeds
