At office all working fine, but when at home, I am not able to connect to 3G connection.  sad.gif

Firstly what I have done is by forcing it to Network type: WCDMA Only. However it unable to register as picture below:

fail register 3g (picture)
Secondly, may be my place does not support 2100Mhz, how if I want to force it 900Mhz? I read how to force it to 2100Mhz using QPST posted by @chuahcs79

All related to E398.  icon_question.gif

Use MDMA to force it to UMTS 900. smile.gif
Anyway, these days most of the towers are running on UMTS 2100.

I afraid MDMA haven't fully support E398 yet sad.gif

Oh, I didn't know there are some E398 that are not supported by MDMA.
Only got to know after tubi's explanation. smile.gif

I'm using E398 and my modem works perfectly with MDMA.
I can select my LTE band flawlessly as well. biggrin.gif

Panel is really good if your connection sucks. biggrin.gif

I have bought three panels from tubi and 2 are in PJ while 1 unit at hometown.

Er, it helps a lot in my PD's connection but seems like my connection is considered good in PJ, I'm not using those panels anymore. Somehow they slowed my speed when I last tried. sad.gif So, 2 panels lying there and do nothing...

I have bought 3 and I'm only using one now at my hometown because my connection is quite bad there.
The 2 are collecting dusts in PJ because they always point me to the slower towers. laugh.gif
I think the slower towers are having strong reception. laugh.gif

Now on LTE, I don't need these panels anymore. smile.gif

Antenna is for those who have truly awful signal reception.

Eg keep dropping to 2G and having -92dbm

Else the not really required, our Telco transmit power is too amazing laugh.gif

It did help earlier, pointed me to a faster tower and I was so greedy, bought another one for PD. tongue.gif
Then, bought E398, the greed struck again. Since it can plug in 2 antennas, I went and bought another from you. tongue.gif

Sooner, I noticed my speed got deteriorated. Unplugged one of them, speed flew. biggrin.gif For many months...
Then suddenly, the speed slowed down quite a lot. At first just suspected something wrong the connection, until one fine day unplugged the antenna, and it was flying. laugh.gif

Now, I'm on LTE and basically it makes no difference. tongue.gif
