(Usually SMA connectors or pressure fittings, I don't know the name of those, exactly)\r\n\r\nIf that's too confusing, check the Wilson wireless website, I believe they sell kits with everything you need.","subreddit_name":"Rural_Internet","author":"Isobel-Jae"},{"body":"I'd only had the trashcan a short while before adding an antenna. I didn't take note of any tower ID because given my remote location I'm almost positive there is only one tower for me to connect to. Where can I find my tower ID?\r\n\r\n\u0026amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe trashcan wasn't relocated. In fact, placing it in anything other than a southern window makes me lose connection entirely. Before and after the antenna mod I've always connected to bands 2 and n71.\r\n\r\n\u0026amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\nI actually already have this antenna mounted outside because I was previously using an unlimited Verizon prepaid plan for home internet:\r\n\r\nhttps://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00J14YEHQ\r\n\r\n\u0026amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\nHowever, my trashcan seems fickle in its willingness to connect. I tried connecting it to that Wilson antenna and sometimes it'd connect with the same speeds and specs as if there was no antenna connected and sometimes it wouldn't connect at all. If I change the trashcan's position or antenna, sometimes I have to reboot several times before it'll finally connect.","subreddit_name":"tmobileisp","author":"Jvr7EVZr"},{"body":"\u0026gt;wifi isn’t all that strong (we have a hot spot that will barley stream)\r\n\r\nFirst of all, Wi-Fi is your local network and it's fast. Then there's the Internet which is slow for you.\r\n\r\nNow, if you have a hot-spot that sits at home that barely works, you need to move it outside. Signal strength is better outside for obvious reasons (obstructions). A non-obvious reason is LoE windows have silver coating that reflects some of the solar radiation as well as LTE signals.\r\n\r\nWhen your hotspot is located outside your home and the speed is still not acceptable for normal use, you'll need some dedicated hardware like a yagi (directional) antenna. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00J14YEHQ Some of the small hot-spot devices can be connected to external antennas, e.g. Mi-Fi 8800 from Sprint. Adapters required.\r\n\r\nAlso trying all cell providers and comparing them side by side is a must. Where I live, AT\u0026amp;T was the best, Sprint was pretty good, and T-Mobile was garbage. AT\u0026amp;T is a great choice because you don't have to use the device they provide, you can insert the SIM card to your own device, which is crucial for me as I have an OpenWRT device with a very decent LTE module with 2x carrier aggregation. Obviously, this is highly technical and not for everyone. But you have options if you're a techie.","subreddit_name":"homesecurity","author":"Nowaker"},{"body":"Are there any obstructions? Outside directional antennas with clear line of sight. I run two of [these Wilson antennas](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00J14YEHQ/ref=cm_sw_r_em_api_glt_fabc_0N6NVMAQ3Z85CDH4VCAT) on a 25’ mast pointed straight at the cell tower. Each antenna at a 45* angle to each other shaped like an X.\r\n\r\nIf you have 4 sma ports on your cellular modem it sounds like you can run 4. The thing is though, line of sight is very important, if there are a bunch of trees or a hill or something in the way it’s not gonna work worth a crap.","subreddit_name":"CellBoosters","author":"offthewallness"},{"body":"That looks like it should work well. It covers B2, B4, B12, B66. B4 and B66 are similar signals, with B66 containing B4 and some extra frequencies (superset). What I have always struggled with is sometimes the devices will latch B12 and result in the slow speeds. \r\n\r\nSomething to try. Manually turn down all the signals but AWS and see if that helps keep you on B66. Depending on how the tower is pointing (bi-directional, tri-directional, etc) and where you are on that. If you are on one of the diagonals from the antenna, where the antennas are not directly pointing at you, that’s quite a distance to expect B66. It also depends on the load on the tower. \r\n\r\nI typically stick to the Wilson yagi, but yours should work just fine. \r\n\r\nWilson Electronics Wideband Directional Antenna 700-2700 MHz, 50 Ohm (314411) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00J14YEHQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_AjAbGbF2FA2XY","subreddit_name":"tmobile","author":"dfr33man"},{"body":"I work in IT and quite frequently work with LTE internet.\r\n\r\nI would always recommend getting your own sim card modem and an outdoor directional antenna you can point at the tower.

Since I get \"almost no signal\", I am assuming that the other hill is not entirely blocking me. Or maybe it is just causing some sort of diffraction/scattering. In any case, I am guessing that getting up higher will be better.\r\n\r\n\u0026gt;A moderately high gain antenna (maybe 12dbi) will be easier to align than a really highly directional one.\r\n\r\n[This 10.6 dB gain one](https://www.amazon.com/Electronics-Wideband-Directional-700-2700-314411/dp/B00J14YEHQ) is the one that seems to work well for most people and it covers all the common cell frequency bands. The two bands I am most interested in are bands 2 and 12, and it is hard to find a good high gain antenna that covers both of those.\r\n\r\n\u0026gt;Put all the hardware up in the tree and keep your cables to no more than a few feet.\r\n\r\nOut the other end of the booster they usually connect an omni antenna that the phone then connects to. It needs to be placed far enough away from the first antenna so not cause interference and it only has a range of 10-20 feet. So you ether need to have a coax run somewhere, and if I put the booster up in the tree also then I also need to run the power cord up there. \r\n\r\n\u0026gt;This will probably require a larger panel and battery than you expect. A single full-size panel (250W or more) is probably what you'll end up with. Be sure to oversize your solar power system by a lot.\r\n\r\nOh, I see what you are saying. No, having a PV panel in the tree will not work as there will be almost 100% shade. In fact I will probably only be able to get the antenna mount ed half way up the trunks of some of these trees. Still that is at least 50 feet up which is way higher than most of the masts I can afford. Power will absolutely need to come from the ground level which is why it makes sense to have the booster at ground level.","subreddit_name":"OffGrid","author":"thomas533"},{"body":"Kinda in the same boat as you, expect I've updated to a MOFI4500 and still the same issue, I've now ordered an Antenna on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00J14YEHQ/ and hope for the best, I've read good thing about the MagicBox here, but either you have an account with Sprint or know someone that can order one for you (free).","subreddit_name":"Calyx","author":"ImNotThatIntoYou"},{"body":"I ordered him the Wilson Wideband Directional Antenna found here: \r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Electronics-Wideband-Directional-700-2700-314411/dp/B00J14YEHQ/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=wilson+yagi\u0026amp;qid=1569347723\u0026amp;s=gateway\u0026amp;sr=8-2\r\n\r\nI'm waiting on an adapter to connect the antenna cabling to the LB1120 modem, so I can't give any insight on speeds yet.
