This is the max speeds I got with jio when I direct line of sight with a jio tower .The maximum distance between me and tower will be 50 meter. I am having an snr of 26 to 28 when this test is taken. Also what I didn't understand is that carrier aggregation is disabled w whenever the tower is within the line of sight. My phone is latches only to b40 during this time. This only means that jio is highly congested. Also this is not an urban area just a semi rural area

@nitinmits It will be 9.63915, 76.544039
Hello, I'm living in rural area in Karnataka. Right behind my house they have installed a jio tower. I observed that speeds vary greatly inside my house and outside, eventhough full signal is available. I'm planning to buy TP-Link Archer MR200 router and install an antenna on top of the house. After doing that, arial distance between the antenna and the tower will be around 20 metres maximum.
1. TP-Link Archer MR200 is plain 4G router and not a more expensive 4G+ router like MR600. Since the distance between tower and antenna will be very small, I think gains won't be much with carrier aggregation. Network speed varies between 4mbps to 28mbps.
2. There are many types of antennae. LPDR, patch and Yagi. Which one is suitable for my case?

@harshbhat85 yeah its true..even u won't be getting any ca signal with that specified line of site. I don't know the reason but carrier aggregation will not work if we are in the direct line of site.or the tower is very near atleast for me it's not working be it airtel or jio. But the speeds u got for 4g is very less for a 20m distance. Assuming band 40 is latched then u should be getting 30 to 100 mbps max for that type of distance. 4 to 28 mbps is very low. Also it's a rural area as u said so congestion is not even a matter to be considered. Even I am getting 4 mbps to 8 mbps that on band 5 with tower 1km away
@harshbhat85 I dont about how to get band info from the TP-Link router . But if u are using a Samsung phone then dial *#0011# and select the sim to know the band info. But I am almost sure u are latching to band 40 since the tower is very near to u
Ok thank you. Just made few observations, this 4g really cannot cross small walls and rooms. Right now, if I go out, I get about 20mbps and if I come inside I get 4mbps. Tower is 50 metres away.
@harshbhat85 the difference is all in the wavelength. pure laws of physics. the wave length has a correlation with the penetration power. Band 5 (850 Mhz) has maximum penetration power, followed by Band 3 (1800 Mhz). Band 40 (2300 Mhz) has lowest penetration power. But Band 40 gives maximum speed. The reason why outdoor speeds are so much higher. Thicker walls, older constructions etc also reduce penetration. Thats why CA becomes more important indoors.
