Re: Help Me Find a Replacement for ATT iPad Plan

Tethering from a phone might be an option. If you use EasyTether, data will be counted as phone data, not hotspot. I have a Raspberry Pi running EasyTether and Wireguard. I'm in the process of writing a blog post describing it.

Band 71 antennas

New here. Got a MoFi SIM7 locked to TMobile band 71. Got the MoFi and monthly service from wcminternet.com. So far so good but I've been playing with antennas. I'm 11 miles from the tower, supposedly LOS but not visible because of trees. Tried the LPDA the guy loaned me, supposedly made for 600MHz u...

My Ultimate LTE router using a Raspberry pi 4B

I set out on an adventure to dump my 3Mb/768k DSL in favor of LTE data. Little did I know the depth and breadth of the rabbit hole I was about to plunge into. My first big break was finding @swwifty's thread in this forum on building his router. Inspired by his RPi 3 build, I decided to replicate hi...

Re: T-Mobile Band 71

Sorry for the confusion. I though I was clear. They ADDED more of the B71 that they don't own so that extra portion could go away in the future. Here is the article guts, from March: ------------------------------ T-Mobile will borrow spectrum in the 600MHz band from Dish, Comcast, and other compani...

Re: UltraGain 26 parabolic antenna assembly

You make the horn LONGER for the lower frequencies. Pull all the way OUT for 600MHz Band71 Push all the way IN for the higher frequencies. This thing is like a laser pointer, very hard to get it to lock into the cell tower. But is you can it works very well! You will need to monitor the following in...

Re: Cabling recommendations for 25' dual runs from modem to LTE antenna

In 100% agreement with @swwifty. Don't skimp on your cable. Just an extra loss of 1 or 2db can make a world of difference if you are on the fringe. This calculator gives you good idea of different cables: https://www.qsl.net/co8tw/Coax_Calculator.htm LMR-240 @ 2500MHz = 3.234DB for 25ft LMR-400 @ 25...

Re: T-Mobile n71 b71 difference to an amp

I dont use boosters, but I think you are correct. The booster just amplifies along a particular frequency.

A high gain directional antenna should do the same, and with cleaner signal, for cheaper. Especially if for data only.

Re: what works?

If you have good T-Mobile coverage they are easier to get going in my opinion.
If you don't care about ping or video throttling visible could be a cheaper choice.

Re: Fastest Modem for Upload?

For example, if my phone here was directly connected to a cell tower configured the same, upload/download speeds between those towers should be identical. If I could amplify my broadcast to even 1% of that tower however, I’d be in the 3mbps UL range, 30mbps DL rather than .07mbps UL, 30mbps DL But ...

Perhaps that is only one piece of the puzzle or there are some other settings that were previously set that need to be changed. Anything else tha...

Re: WE826 and External Antennas (Best Setup)

This explains more from your other post. Your modem uses both antenna ports, whether there is one antenna plugged in or two. This is another reason your phone is smoking your modem. You should always use two separate exact matched antennas each with their own cable. Also, are you using satellite/cab...

Re: How many Wifi Cards do you need for H721 V5? and What WiFi cards do you recommend?

Intel cards wont work on any non-customized openWRT systems. The Linux kernel requirements are too high.

Re: EM7411 w/ Band 7411 worth it?

FYI
T-Mobile has band 71 4G and
n71 5G they are both using 600MHz

T-Mobile Band n41 is the faster 5G

n71 is 5G low band
n41 is 5G mid band

In a rural setting 600MHz is your friend
Not the fastest but gets the job done
