Wireless Joint

Hello,

I need one info if it's possible to lock Nighthawk M1 to specific "LTE Cell ID"? I've locked the LTE Band to B40 and I get a good speed around 7MB/s, but as soon as the "cell ID" switches speed degrades to 1mbps which is very slow.

Now the current "LTE cell ID" is 206376461, gives me very slow speed, once it switches to "LTE cell ID" 206376451 I get very good speed. is there any way to achieve this with AT! command line? Thank you.

Based on band 41, I'm guessing you probably have Sprint service. Just to get a baseline idea for testing speeds in your area, I would use a phone first with the same sim card to see what you get with that in order to eliminate any modem/router issues right off the bat (with a Samsung phone you can try the diag command *#0011# entered on the phone's keypad, to see the currently connected band along with some other useful info). If you get similar to your router's 7Mbps, then there's not much that can be done, other than using some higher gain antennas, omni or directional, or switching carriers as a last resort. The problem with non-OpenWRT routers, is that there's much less flexibility in the settings, especially radio control.
