Networking a Mobley


Recommended Posts

I have been thinking.  If I took a mini USB to USB 2 or 3 cable and connected the Mobley to a 5GHz router.  Would I have faster speeds?  I'm not trying to hook up more the the 5 device limit.  But improve it.  The Mobley can download up to 100 Mbps, so it got me thinking that maybe the weak link is the wireless connection to the devices that I have on the Mobley.  As the Mobley only has 802.11 b/g/n and not 2.4 or 5 Ghz.  Thanks for the feedback and thoughts.

 

LTE 700/850/1700/1900
HSPA 850/1900
Download speeds up to 100 Mbps
Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n
Connect up to 5 Wi-Fi devices

The weakest link is whatever tower the Mobley is working off of.
You will never see a 100Mbps.

In the 6 different states over the last 6 months I have been in.
Fastest has been 22.40 and slowest 2.40Mbps

I just ran a test where I am now and got a 11.21Mbps
My Sprint iPhone got 36.96Mbps

I've found that simply hanging the Mobley out the window more than doubles the speed . ;)

That's with no antenna . Mobley only .

X2 with Pate and Pete. When we get to a new location, we move the Mobley from window to window for the best tower location while monitoring the signal level from the wifi manager. We too leave it hanging in the window and sometimes get 2 times or greater speeds.

Currently the Mobley is actually outside the window . Of course we'll 'let it in' before we retire for the night . ;)

Goes around , comes around .

I put mine at a window inside with the label side out.  I check the signal strength at many directions before I choose one.
