throughput. Generally, a higher location near windows and a place with
minimum obstruction to carrier cell towers will result in a better data
throughput.
b. You can log into the WebGUI to check the RSRP/RSRQ/SINR to verify the
changes to signal quality.
c. In the WebGUI, you can also go to “Settings” > “Cellular Settings” >
“Network”, to specify the band you want to use. Please check and confirm
band information with your carrier before you adjust the band you prefer.
Please note that we don’t encourage customers to adjust these features by
themselves if you are not familiar with mobile technology.
