It's strange. When we use T-Mo on an andriod device the ping times are 30-40 ms. When we try with the modem + raritn console box it jumps to min of 100+ ms (the modem is high up on top of the rack and we test with the phones we are on the floor) - Can 5 feet higher make it that much worse? On

Check the route your taking when you use the cell phone as a hotspot and when you use the LTE modem. The carrier may be using different paths. You may want to engage the vendor of your modem as well to make sure everything in it is configured correctly. Depending on the device there are a lot

You mention your connection is 4G. On T-Mobile 4G is UMTS whereas LTE is, well, LTE. Are you really on UMTS (which I would expect to have much crazier RTTs and jitter like you report) or did you mean LTE? Ryan > On Dec 28, 2018, at 7:06 AM, Dovid Bender wrote: > > Hi All, > > I finally

I’ve found the antenna choice and placement can make a huge difference in a data center environment. In some cases it required going to a directional high gain antenna pointed towards a desirable tower, which we found by having someone monitor / reload the Opengear web interface while another

Yes, there were 911 services affected. The latest word from C-link as of 1:46PM mountain is that all 911 services are restored where they are the provider. I'm not 100% sure if that's system-wide, or just my area in the northwest, however. Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email. ‐‐‐ Original
