Bingfu 4G LTE Antenna Outdoor SMA Aerial MIMO Antenna Fixed Bracket Wall Mount Waterproof Aerial for 4G LTE Wireless CPE Router Hotspot IoT Gateway Industrial Terminal Server Security Camera

I'm not an especially techie person, but I get a metal camper van is a giant Faraday cage for 4G signal. So I tried my 12v EE modem with this aerial fixed to a strong magnet on the side of my Ducato camper. Download speed in my rural garden with pretty poor reception was 23mbps, upload, an impressive 10 Mbps. That was plenty to watch BBC iPlayer on my van's smart TV. I then brought the aerial into the van, by a window, and the rates halved to 10 Mbps and 5 Mbps upload. I then used my phone inside the van and it was 7mbps upload and 3mbps download. So, this little aerial doubled my upload and download speeds when it was attached to the outside of my van. My phone, outside will get a 20mbps download and about 5mbps upload, so the aerial doesn't miraculously turn a poor data speed into a blistering speed but it hugely improved my modem. EE is, in my experience, the best network frequency for data reception and this is due to it being on a longer wavelength than its competitor networks, which is a pity as EE is so expensive for data.In conclusion, well worth the price. I'm not fixing the aerial permanently. I'm using a North Core wetsuit magnet to fix the aerial to the van when I need it. I did need to drill a 4mm hole in the middle of the steel plate and I do wish the aerial leads were twin core rather than 2 separate wires. The North Core wetsuit magnet fixing is plenty strong enough to drive with. It's 2 twist on coaxial fittings and fix the aerial. If you have two opposable thumbs you can fit it.

I’m sure it’s not the best antenna doesn’t seem well sealed, but with it installed and connected to a cheap 4g router the speeds go up for me if only from 8mbps to 14mbps. With the arial able to be placed outside and higher than the router is on a windowsill in the built up environment I’m in it makes my backup connection more usable.

Live only a couple or so miles from a town but have no phone or broadband for internet. So much for the government drive to give high speed internet to all? So use a MiFi router. Trouble is the signal is terrible inside my home. Tried a couple of other internal and external antenna but they did not improve things. This one has made a massive difference! Went from 1 or 2 meg, to 20+, sometimes 30+ meg! The signal strength on the router can drop and fluctuate but the actual speed seems to remain high. Can't believe I have finally got some reasonable internet speeds after months of trying. Would recommend you use an app to find the best position for signal strength as even a change in position of and inch or so can make a big difference to your speeds. This was true for me regardless of the antenna used.Disclaimer:I was not offered and have not received any incentive for purchasing and reviewing this product. This review is a genuine statement of my experience with using this antenna.

Worked fine but stopped working within 8. weeks of purchase.

This is a very good antennai I\nWill recommend this to anybody

So my use requirement was to be able to use a 4G router as a backup device should my broadband line fail. The router is in a location with no signal at all and the area is poor for 4G reception. This external antenna has enabled the router to receive a signal, (-117db) it's not great however does work. It was cheap enough to trial the idea so I will probably try a higher gain antenna to see if I can improve the signal strength more.

Attached to the outside of a metal shed using the supplied sticky pad. Signal strength went from a slightly unstable 65-70% to a solid 100% using a TP-Link TL-MR105. There's now a reliable connection to a remote CCTV system. Just don't forget to select 'External Antenna' from the router advanced settings.

I live in an area with poor reception and this has helped a bit and that was all I was hoping for.
