I have my Pepwave Max BR1 MK2 installed in my RV and running on DC power. It is connected to a Poynting 5 in 1 MIMO antenna that is mounted on my roof. My WiFi signal is strong when i am right next to the Pepwave device but as soon as I move away from the device, the signal strength drops off very quickly. I checked in the Advanced WiFi settings and made sure that the signal strength was turned all the way up.
I use an iPhone app called WiFiSweetSpots and when I am next to the Pepwave device, i get a signal strenght of about 220. As soon as I setup out of my RV (about 5ft away) the signal drops off to about 30. If I climb on the roof of my RV and put my phone next to the antenna, the signal is about 80.
I would assume that the signal strength next to the antenna would be super strong.
I did use adapters to go from the antenna connectors to the Pepwave on the WiFi connections.
Any thoughts on how I can improve WiFi signal strength? Any way I can test connections to make sure the adapters are working?
