Poynting XPOL-2-5G-10 Directiona Antenna

Top Antenne, funktioniert sehr gut. Ich würde sie wieder bestellen.

We are in remote rural area with very slow broadband available, so we rely on 4g mobile signal. Our house has thick stone walls so no signal inside, limited signal outside at ground level. We spent some time finding the best position for the antenna at roof level, and are now receiving 50 - 70 mbps, the fastest we've had here. Very pleased!

Boosted my 5G signal strength and prevented anymore poor signal strength dropouts from provider.

I recently started using a new Telstra Smart WiFi modem (Gen 3) which comes with a 4G LTE sim as a backup network when NBN goes down. Without this antenna, the mobile Internet registers as poor (zero to two bars). i experienced the pain of 2Mbps download speeds for a day with frequent drop out as we live in a telstra blackspot area. I wall mounted the antenna initially but ended up mounting it on an antenna mast just under the eaves (my available cable length prevented me from trying roof mount options). It took a few hours of experimentation to point it in the best direction. The modem still says I have a poor to fair connection (which is better than no connection to poor). I now see two bars of strength instead of one. The connection stability and speed has now been greatly improved as I can achieve a stable connection between 20 to 22 Mbps which is close to the maximum supported on the Telstra 4G backup sim card. I initially had it wall mounted but have since mounted it on a small wall attached TV antenna pole so I can rotate it enough to achieve the optimal speed. I also experimented with Up/Down variation by bending the attachment bracket slightly. I was surprised how directional this antenna is, if I even stray more than about 5 degrees from the LTE access tower I see a sharp drop off of in speed and stability. I tested it for over an hour streaming 4K netflix content to two TVs without any lag or glitches. Something I found useful for determining where to point it is to first identify which tower your modem naturally connects to without any antenna and make note of the MMC, MNC, LAC/TAC and Cell ID codes for that transmitter. Put the values into the "Cell Location Finder" android app to see on a map where the cell tower or smart street light is and position the antenna in that direction.
