lilotimz Posted August 18, 2017 Author Share Posted August 18, 2017 FYI to everyone that gets a MB. Make sure its back (aka opposite side of the touch screen) is facing the donor cell. The relay antenna is pretty directional and performs better when aimed at the donor eNB. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ingenium Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Interesting. The exterior design is noticeably different from the 540 model. Vents moved to the bottom. Looks a bit thinner too. Still using the same pink foam for packaging lol. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ingenium Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 The screen is like a kindle paper Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk There's no backlight? And not color? The screen on the 540 is very poor with regards to touch sensitivity. And it's pretty bright and always on.

I came basically with almost no battery life so I had to plug it in which doesn't matter since I was going to do that anyway.

Terrell352 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 It's taking a while to connect. It has GPS and relay but the last step to connect to LTE is taking a long time. 8 mins and counting. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's going to be a min. I tried two windows and while the TX power, dBm were amazing the speeds actually became slower than just connecting to the tower. I'm on window 3.

Don't expect speeds to be faster than connecting to the macro. It has to receive the lte connection via the relay and then send the data connection to the airspan small cell which then broadcasts a brand new lte signal. Theres a speed and ping hit due to the relay. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galaxyguy Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Does the MB connect to the macro with only one carrier? If so, that would make the connection slower than if you have 2x or 3xCA with your phone. Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk 300% better*... Speed increase will be due to the new band 41 signal reaching into areas where the macro 25/26/41 signal degrades into weak and slower signals.
