Not sure about '5dbi antenna', but I use this antenna and got from 1-2 bar to 3 bar on the B310. Money well spent I say.

Of course, the effectiveness of the antenna depends on how strong the signal is at your area and how you locate said antenna

Don't forget to tell the B310 to use the antenna via the 'Settings' menu on the admin interface which by default is at http://192.168.8.1

i just bought "mimo antenna"..
then testing it with no significant differences on speed..didnt know there a setting like that, i though it will auto use whatever method to get that signal.. bangwall.gif

questions:

i have B310s-22..the signal on the modem is full 3 over 3bars..but in hi-link apps, it only show 3 over 5bars of signal strength..i wonder if the modem is actually receiving full signal strength or only 3/5 signal strength?.

which one is correct?.

Yeah, the B310 signal indicator is pretty confusing.

If the LED on the hardware shows 2 bars then 192.168.8.1 will show 2 bars too. That makes sense.

However, there are times when the hardware LED says 3 bars, but 192.168.8.1 reported 3 or more.

Maybe Huawei forgot to put more LED lights on the hardware or it's a cost cutting measure for a non top of the line product

Which one is correct? No idea smile.gif

I'm happy when I managed to get 3 bars instead of 1 like the past few weeks. Hope it stays that way

maybe..since now everything need cost cutting..haha

Did you notice any diff after done the setting?

no..infact the signal went down from 3bar to 2bars only..

no time testing with another spot inside house..maybe this holiday will try move around..i bought 3, planning to sell other 2 units..but if no change, maybe will sell 2 new with 1 used unit..

btw, according to the map, my house is within 4G+ coverage..just +-1km from 4G+ boundry..but the speed just around 8-15Mbps with and without the antenna..
