MIMO 4x4 Panel External Antenna Kit for 4G LTE/5G Hotspots & Routers

Waveform MIMO 4 X4 antenna

I purchased the MIMO 4by4 panel external antenna to improve my tmobile internet. Service was already ok/good but this took it up a notch to consistently higher download speeds. Installation was straight forward (Get a tmobile gateway with external antenna ports). Tmobile swapped my older gateway when I asked. Directions were complete and clear and there are great videos on You Tube for installation and set up. I am going to set up another one for a family member on a remote farm later this summer. I can recommend this for performance and ease of set up.

Take the time to set it up

This stabilized our connection speeds from 3-7mb/s down and .3-1.5up to 8-12down and 7-9 up. This should allow us to work from our cabin finally!! The key for our setup was to locate the two nearest cell towers and "aim" in each direction RESETTING THE ROUTER each move and retesting speeds. Both direction and height seemed to play a role in the reliability and strength of our signal(18feet seemed better than 21 feet for some reason). The more time you can spend tuning it the better. This product might not work in every situation but it's certainly worth trying. Seems like it is a quality product for a really specific use. It can only work with the signal that's in location but if you have some service it seems to do its job as long as you spend the time to get it in the optimal spot.

My T-Mobile router indoors without

My T-Mobile router indoors without an external antenna would get 50 - 100 Megs download and 10ish upload. First test with this antenna outdoors on my patio sitting a foot off the ground, 630 meg download, 35 up. Heehee, I had to pick my jaw up off the patio. With it mounted on the side of the house in the most optimal local it can get around 300 to 400. T-Mobile jumps to multiple different towers from here depending on network traffic, so speed is dependent on many factors from this remote location. The antenna is made of quality components and works well. Cable is a little cumbersome and had to get creative on router placement and cable install for permanent type installation. I am happy with the added performance of the T-Mobile service. No hard wired cable for internet at this house and was using a Centurylink DSL line. 10 meg download on a good day and less than 1 meg up it. For me, a little pricey for an antenna, but worth the investment in 5G connectivity.
