MOFI4500 4x4 Mimo setup?

Post by shunryu999 »

Hi all -- newbie here so apologies if this is well-trodden territory but --

I realize now that I don't need the wifi on the MOFI4500, and could probably use another pair of antennas out in my neck of the woods.

Is it possible to disable the wifi, replace the 2 front ports with SMA, and rewire to get at 4x4 MIMO setup going?

Or should I start fresh with a different modem/router combo - and if so, what would you recommend?

Many thanks --

You can disable wifi and replace the two wifi antennas with sma type connectors.

Assuming you know this, but you will need a modem that is 4x4 capable. Out of my league and pocketbook, can't help there :)

I also assume you know to get the correct sma to modem cables. EM series takes the tiny one and MC the larger one. See them at https://thewirelesshaven.com/product-category/cab ... il-cables/
