LTE | Getting better speeds from my Telkom router using an antenna

This article if existing Telkom LTE clients who would like to improve their Telkom LTE speeds. 


LTE signal strength:

In some cases, you may experience a less consistent LTE signal strength in some areas of your home. This could be due to your router being shadowed by obstacles within or around your home causing inadequate LTE signal strength and speeds. 

Things like the lay of your land could affect your signal, perhaps your home is situated in a valley and the mobile tower signal struggles to reach you effectively. Perhaps you are surrounded by high-rise buildings and trees that could interfere with your routers ability to remain connected to the mobile towers. Thick walls or lots of walls in your home could cause a weaker signal strength in some areas of your home. Even things we can't see or touch such as radio or microwave frequency's could be interfering with your LTE signal.

Omni Directional antenna

These obstacles can be overcome by connecting your router to an LTE Omni Directional antenna which boosts the reception from your LTE router, stabilises your LTE speeds and increases your signal strength throughout your home. This LTE antenna can easily be self-installed inside or outside your home. 

The LTE Omni Directional antenna rebroadcasts, captures and extends the reception from your LTE router, cellular device or wireless access point. The  LTE Omni Directional antenna is an easy self-install antenna, no technical know-how is required to set up the antenna. It can be used indoor or outdoor. The antenna is 4G & 5G ready and boosts the signal from your nearest LTE Mobile Tower. You can order online & get it delivered for free to your door anywhere in SA.
