Hi guys. Is anyone using the external antenna with this modem? Does it really improve your connection?

Except your connection is very bad, else its internal antenna is already superior. For my case, without external antenna works better.

The coverage wasn't that bad it just I believe the network in my place too congested. I can only get the advertised speed on early morning. Others than that no chance. Will the antenna help with this?

Probably because it will help to pull signal from other tower.

The common external antenna for Huawei 4G routers is this: https://shopee.com.my/product/48807093/787791738?smtt=0.0.9
Make sure you buy the red box, there's a similar type but packed in blue box which has a lower spec.

the device which  is the B618-65D will be given for free, so i doubt it's not locked

but we will see, for me its just showing a pattern where they would force lock 65D sooner or later

as always better be safe than sorry
