WE1026 thinking outside the box...
Hi All, Over in the antenna board I posted some of my challenges trying to get better speeds on my AT&T set up (old wireless home phone / internet - WHPI on grandfathered Unlimited Plus plan.) I've been struggling with it and I think it's more of a signal problem than being de-prioritized. I took ...

Re: Trying to decide on antennas
I'm in a pretty similar boat. The unfortunate part of where I live is Spectrum is about 1/2 mile from the end of my road. I've tried so many times to get them to run service, even using my enterprise connections (we have Spectrum fiber at the office) and no go. Not cost effective. That's interesting ...

Re: Trying to decide on antennas
Yep that thought has been in my mind as well. It's frustrating for sure especially when fiber is being rolled out to those that already have cable access, hotspot plans being discontinued and so on and so on. Then there is me with DSL 1.5, satellite or LTE. Even when slow my LTE is faster than the ...

Re: Trying to decide on antennas
I thought about the de-pri possibility. I wouldn't say it ONLY goes back up after a reboot. Last night I went to bed with it running poorly. I woke up and saw 25-30 down going to my daughter's new Xbox. Since the modem is on the roof I'm pretty sure nobody other than me knows how to reset it. :) UL ...

Re: Trying to decide on antennas
Hey guys, thanks for the replies. So I ended up sticking a 10' section of 1-1/4" EMT conduit in an existing tripod mount on my garage roof. I was going to try to mount it on the eaves however ground testing wasn't much of a success. I figured I needed the height to get over the trees more so than ...

Re: Trying to decide on antennas
The flat panels arrived today. Amazing service from The Wireless Haven!! I had to take them for a test drive. Top 4 speeds are standing on my porch, holding the antennas in my hand and guessing at where the tower is. Pretty stable 20 download! Bottom 4 speeds are to a tower in the opposite direction ...

Re: Trying to decide on antennas
Thanks for the reply! So yesterday I did some scrounging through my parts boxes at home and the office and noticed what is probably impacting me a TON. My N to SMA adapter, on the SMA side, is missing the pin! I'm not sure when this happened but it definitely can't be a good thing! SMA.jpg I did ...

Trying to decide on antennas
Hi All. I’ve been reading this site almost non-stop the last few days trying to figure out how to improve my only source of internet at the house. Great info, I’ve learned a lot and appreciate the time everyone takes share their experiences. I’m a user of AT&T’s former WHPI product. Yesterday I upgra ...
