How to install Super Fast 10x speed Off Grid internet! 4g, LTE directional Antenna install

In this video i install a relatively cheap pair of antennas to vastly improve our farm off grid internet. we already use 4g lte for internet but now we have directional antennas focused on our nearest tower. this video is an easy run through of how to set it up.

I bought a few of these to experiment with but life got in the way . Thank you for your video

[@davidstorton910]

I'm very impressed with that mate, I'm just going that way of the 4g lte due to abysmally slow internet .... Thanks Sky for all the bills and bad service

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Upgraded to ee sim and we get 30mb download now sometimes with an average of 20mb well worth it over the copper lines👌

[@nathleflutiste]

I'm going to live in a farm very far from the city soon, so this is kinda VERY helpful. Thanks for sharing, this content is fire.

[@DanielSRosehill]

Thanks for the upload. Nice boost in speed!

[@IvanMartinez-nu7of]

Howdy and thanks for the video my friend! I have an omni directional mimo antenna for my mofi 4500 which does okay but I am trying to get better speeds out of it and considering the style antennas you have. Cheers from Arizona!

Well done

Very Impressive.....🎉 tnks alot

[@tomaylott2593]

Nice!

[@chrisblack3714]

just found your vlog, great stuff, well done on your speed increase. would be interested to know the area, distance from mast and network you are on.

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

7 miles away from the tower with small hills in between 👍

[@accesser]

Slowly working on something similar myself, farm in semi regional Queensland

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Works well if u can get good line of site to the tower we are 7 miles or so from the tower

[@leerickard5920]

@accesser, how did you go? Looking at doing similar in mid north coast NSW

[@Thigsy]

If your 4g router doesn't have CA... Get a 4G+ capable router if your cell provider do Carrier Aggregation. You might get 50 to 60Mbps on a good day. Also, try to look into Parabolic 4G antennas... Those have insane range. 😅😳

If possible, also check which CAs are supported. For example, in Europe B8+20 can make much sense (basically get double speeds) but is quite rare to find (on the hardware side, X55 based routers support it but no low-band 5G CA). And obviously n71 for the US or B32 for Europe.

[@hmm-m]

Hi, do you think such antennas perform better than "triangle-shaped in plastic case" LTE antennas? I think inside they have the same metal elements. Do you know which dB gain those have? I see you also mounted them with 45 degree angles - did you also try + polarization or only X?

[@jonbishop1385]

Your link for antennas is for audio books ?

[@nomadicheadman7463]

How did you join the two cables into one? Did you use t-shaped adapter for the cable?

[@SurvivingTheApocalypse]

You don’t. This is a MIMO setup. The Huawei router he us using has two antenna inputs on the back.

[@fuckngcnt]

Nice job, how far is the antenna from your farm?

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

About 7 miles 👍

[@luc5543]

Well done, mate, you've done your homework re mimo etc. Where did you buy them from? I'm also researching mobile broadband as coincidence would have it. My Poynting omni also didn't deliver..

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Got them on ebay they a reasonable price too www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173472011873

[@TheHappyGeordie]

Where did you get the antenna's from? A link would be great.

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Ebay is pretty good

[@johnmichael1220]

How did this pan out for you buddy please. It's looking like I'm gonna have to do something similar but with the UK weather wind ect... As me a little sceptical

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Works sweet I'm still using it the same way now mounted on my barn, multiple devices and TVs can be streaming at once. Sometimes in heavy rain it drops a bit but wind doesn't seem to bother it. You could always mount it to a second hand telephone pole for more stability I use ee for the sim card they seem to have the best rural bandwidth round here, I'm 8 miles from what they call a super cell tower lol

[@johnmichael1220]

@@FieldtoFarm_UK that's excellent I was thinking of attaching to my washing line tbh on a large pole and not aloud to attach to my house unfortunately as it's rendered and not aloud to drill into it. Housing association orders😡 I'm not sure in the distance how far tried looking from the tops near my house and can't see it so we're a fair way from them I think. I live down the southwest of Wales and 4g was the only option here. Ill have a look at my options further tomorrow I do have antenna's already stationed up in the loft but gonna need moving asap

[@volvo09]

Should have just asked the guy to move the barn over a bit. :)

[@matixnznz]

Make sure you change the settings on the modem to ext antenna only. Don’t use auto.

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Auto works just fine, that's y they make them that way!

[@matixnznz]

@@FieldtoFarm_UK myself and my isp had issues with the same modem you are using. Changing it to ext antenna only fixed the issue. It would prioritise the internal first if it could get a signal.

[@wely6115]

@@matixnznz u need to open the router and cutoff the intrenal antenna and use the outdoor only

[@nathleflutiste]

@@wely6115 Isn't the ext antenna option exist just to do that ?

[@unknown-sc6if]

after this try sector antenna 2x18dbi. lets see how its perform . as far as i know it should be better than yagi

[@smiffykuk]

Its a log periodic not a yagi… yagi is for single frequency whereas Log periodic are made for a range of frequencies.. LP gain is lower but more versatile if you don’t know which band your supplier is using.

[@AshGreen359]

I'm expecting mine to come in the mail tomorrow Are you supposed to point both antennas at the same tower? I thought to point them at the two closest

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

I'm pretty sure they wont work if u dont point them at the same tower

[@AshGreen359]

@@FieldtoFarm_UK Thanks

[@Berxy]

@@AshGreen359 it should work just fine actually, a single antenna should be as effective as 2 due to cellular networks being radiowaves, thus they are transverse, only way 2 could improve the signal is by having some sort of constructive interference. But it really depends on your setup and location and kit. I would just do a bit of trial and error as you never know.

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

U r completely wrong the 2 r required or the signal speed will be 100th of speed 4g relies on mimo, multi in multi out signals

[@1inAtrillion]

Is that antenna just for wifi or does it boost your cell phone as well ?

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

Its just for the 4g signal from the tower to your router 👌

[@eugenedubens988]

Would be ace to see how the antenna cables are hooked up to the router

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

It's an sma plug that just twists to lock into position they come on the antennas

[@eugenedubens988]

@@FieldtoFarm_UK hey so the Huawei router is what you use and I'll look it up but any idea what options are out there ....? Thanks for getting back to me ... inspirational vidz

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

U need to look for a router with sim card slot and external aerial ports.

[@ArchangelGabriel]

What is the brand of your antennas?

[@gergemall]

Look up Yagi antennas. They are relatively inexpensive and fun to experiment with.

[@antonioadem1425]

It must be 2 anteinna for working well?

Yes, unless it‘s 3G. 4G and 5G require two antennas for best performance.

[@luis4290]

Fuck... I was getting mad because where I want to live I can get only 35 Mbps 4G on the phone, and came looking for greater speeds, looks like I am blessed with my current speed.

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

My 4g on the phone here is non existing, we are 11 miles or so from the tower. Any external aerial on a router should get you better speed that ur phone if you already get good ones. We have changed providers also that doubled our speed 👌

If you happen to get a good antenna or live in such a great position that the LOS to one site isn‘t possible, this still may work. For example, I have a 5G tower here which is obstructed by a hill in a really bad way and holding my phone in the air gives me 700 instead of 200 Mbps.

[@antonshill]

do you have any updates on your internet?

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

What would you like to know? Iv change provider and got better speeds still but all working well otherwise 😁

I’d invest in a better router! And possibly change internet provider 😂

[@shaundocherty96]

I’ve got 4G LTE I’m running 10mbps on a bad day and 100mbps on a good day using your old type of antenna and I’m nowhere near my closest tower 😂

[@FieldtoFarm_UK]

The network provider is the key now got 50mb standard download in good weather from changing 👌

[@nathleflutiste]

@shaundocherty96 Well, if I'm not mistaken his Huawei modem can reach a throughput speed that can reach 300mb at max (and for lower end ones, the reference is 150mb). So until there is a provider than offer more than that, it doesn't seem very wise to change his device.

You spend 5 hours trying to fix the mess, charge 2 hours for what it should have taken and then accidentally trip over their new "beamer" when they ask for discount.
