Actually, that's exactly the setup I have, except mine is mounted on a shelf on top of a fence post! That has been my set up for 2 weeks. However, that still gives me an average of 2 M down, 0.5 M up, with intermittent outages thru the day, higher speeds at night. I need to improve from my current setup, especially uplink speed. Bocaboy - glad to hear yours is working, and I am also concerned about good service at initiation, followed by poor service thereafter. Please keep us up to date on what happens in your situation. Interesting that you are stable with only a 4G signal... perhaps there's some hope for my case. Thanks!
I am about 1.5 miles from one tower and 2.0 miles from another. Not line of sight, I live in a heavy pine forest with hilly terrain. I spent over 4 hours trying different locations:through upper story windows, using buildings as shields and walking around 2 acres. I have found the only location that will lock onto a signal though the SINR never gets much above +3. It is looking down a tree lined street, so I need a weatherproof gateway with external antennas. So I ask again- does anyone have experience with exterior rated weatherproof MIMO routers, or is this not an option for T-Mobile?

I have just signed up for 5G internet gateway and have similar issues. I was told that I wouldn’t be able to use it where i live, but the store reps were told the same thing, and it works fine for them (one lives about a mile away from my home). I get 4 bars, but 0.9 Mbps download, 0 Mbps upload speed. Web pages barely load. My 5G (N71) has RSRQ of -4/ RSRP -97/ RSRP -89/ SINR 8. So the bars mean almost nothing? Are they just measuring raw RF energy, perhaps other 4G signals? Any clues or insights here? Thanks in advance...
