Now on to antennas... according to the airlink website, my tower is 3.26 miles away but no line of sight. Only one hill in the way but I would need 40’ to get over it (without trees so add another 20ish feet...) that won’t happen!
As it stands, I can get 6ish down and 4ish up speeds but they are hit and miss... Usually 2 down and 1 or less up. I believe that is on band 12. Since we are not there right now, I can’t test. I know just moving everything outside will boost speeds. Again, that is all on the little antennas that come with it.
So, this is what I am thinking after reading the last few pages of posts in this topic
A pair of yagi. They are fairly cheap but mostly used in LOS applications and probably not my best option considering the above.
Anything Omni... I’m not really thinking this will help much. Am I wrong?
A pair of ~8db (or more, I saw some 11 dbi) flat panel directional. Point them toward the tower and see what happens.
A MIMO directional. Kinda liking this idea, one to point and done.
Can probably get it a good 20 ft in the air without too many issues, whatever “it” ends up being.
What would you do? And why?
