Re: Recommendations for Nighthawk M1

Well you have your antennas placed pretty high up right?..

Re: Recommendations for Nighthawk M1

Like Dr broadband said drive right by the tower and test it, I’d also test drive away and test to see when nighthawk switches from higher frequency bands(2,4,66) to lower frequencies. Bands 12/14/17 are super slow. Getting a high gain directional antenna and placing it high enough should allow you ...

Re: Experimental setups?


Sounds like you have found your solution then. How is your ecio and sinr? as I have seen really good download and upload speeds but like I said above poor reliability for things like streaming video?

Didn’t check sinr although I vaguely remember everything being in field test when I used dual ...

Re: Standalone amplifiers, do they exist? Going for tmobile - 7.2 miles from tower, elevation loss of 50ft.

As far as antennas from everything I have read the maximum gain you can achieve is with a parabolic dish. I haven’t seen any of these for sale, besides a huawei antenna that is designed to fit on an old satellite dish with claims of 30dB gain. Thing about grid parabolic is they do not provide an ...

Re: Standalone amplifiers, do they exist? Going for tmobile - 7.2 miles from tower, elevation loss of 50ft.

From what I understand N71 5G is slower than some higher frequency LTE bands however it’s faster than low band LTE like band 12/17 & 13. ^so that would explain your speeds. from what I could find out N71 has a theoretical max of 226mbps hf LTE is similar around 200mbps for single bands and band 12 ...

Re: Experimental setups?

Dual booster(700mhz) dual antennas got 34mbps down and 3-8 up. 34 down is very close to theoretical max for band 12

Re: Experimental setups?

May I ask which booster(s) you were using? And feel free to post as much detail about your setups as u want this stuff is really interesting. And yeah with my booster only working in the 700mhz band, any antenna setup is gonna beat it hands down in a stationary location. Still want to see how it ...

Re: Experimental setups?

Okay so tried direct connect with 65db gain and it didn’t hurt my M1 seems to be a myth perpetuated by booster companies to get you to buy m2m boosters Idk... unfortunately got the wrong connectors so need to purchase more before further tests

Re: Experimental setups?

Yeah at my location I’d only want one band, band 30... I have two phonetone 65db gain boosters at separate locations. Purchased them without really researching that much(they only amplify super slow band 12/17) and now I’m stuck with them. Most likely gonna do LTE antennas direct to TS9...
But I ...

Experimental setups?

Has anyone here used an inline booster aka iot booster or direct connect? Also has anyone used a normal booster(65db) as an inline? I want to try it with my M1 but all the signal booster companies say I’ll over load the system and I need to buy their 15db gain iot booster. Thoughts? Also wondering ...
