Netgear M1 and which aerial

[Guigsy]

I think as your only real problem is when in Norfolk, sorry if I’ve got this wrong, I think your best solution would be a waterproof box with m1 in and stick it on a long pole.
We stop in Suffolk during winter and with Poynting antenna still only get very low speed but good enough to stream using a Firestick with some buffering on some channels

That doesn't explain why one Firestick is fine and the other is flakey.

I have the maxview roam aerial fitted on the roof of my Hymer. It is connected to the router that came with the kit and has a 3 sim card fitted. The aerial works well amplifying a weak signal. I spend a lot of time in the Lakes and Yorkshire Dale's and have very rarely not been able to use my firestick. I'm in Norfolk at the moment and have no problem with the 3 signal.

I do however have to use WiFi calls as my so called 99% country coverage EE sim doesn't work in my mobile phone on this site. I keep meaning to try the EE sim in my WiFi router to see if I get a signal using the Maxview aerial.

Hope this helps.

I've been wanting to get an aerial for my Netgear m1 and thought I was lucky someone had already asked the question. This thread is worse than Facebook, all you need to do now is to start taking the piss out of the op to top off your unhelpfulness. 24 replies and only a couple of answers to the question asked.

You wouldn’t get away with it Jim would soon stamp that out.

All I've seen is posts from people with good intentions trying to help the OP. Well apart from your post of course

How rude.

A Poynting roof mounted antenna, along with conversion leads from SMA to TS9 connectors will do the job for you.
There you go, how helpful was that?

It appears that the OP also has a problem with the wifi signal from the router to the firesticks. That is what many focused on, because normally in a motorhome the wifi isn't a problem. Maybe one of the internal aerials inside the M1 is not working, or is weak. If it was a different router, maybe a couple of rubber duck aerials tilted appropriately would improve the wifi, but I think with the M1 that's not an option.

Except they didn't ask for your help, they asked for a recommendation for an aerial which all, but a couple of people ignored and mansplained what they really needed.

How rude is it to ignore the question and mansplain what they really ought to be doing, they asked a number of times.

i’m certainly not confusing wifi with data, I really do know the difference

all i’m asking for is a recommendation for an external aerial to improve performance so it ain’t me getting confused

I’ll as mk Gadget John, he’ll know

.........to which Al received this amongst the replies.

Al n Val. I have a roof mounted Poynting MIMO 3-12 connected to CAT 6 MiFi, and at Southwold the other week there, I too struggled with a Three signal. Popping the sim card in my phone was only fractionally better. My O2 signal wasn't much better either, so with the right gear, it was definitely down to location, as previously experienced on the east coast.

I too am upgrading to a CAT 20 Netgear MiFi.

Cheers,

Jock.

Without being plugged into the roof mounted antenna, I tend to get 3G/4G. When plugged into the antenna, I normally get full signal strength LTE..................except on the Anglia east coast.

Cheers,

Jock.

Outofthefire, TBH, I think you are on a hiding to nothing here. Maybe it's best to get "out of the fire"...................and back into the frying pan.

Ironic that you complain that this thread is worse than facebook, when the only one acting like they are facebook within it is you. Go and ask your question rather than ruining this thread with your moaning. You'll get plenty of helpful replies

He doesn't need to now Jim, as I have already given him the answer.
