In normal vertical mode, SNR improves, which does not give us benefit. End of day, we need speed...

Problem is, I find the SNR reading very inconsistent, it changes from 6 dB to 18 dB without moving the antenna. My lab spectrum analyzer shows no change in SNR in the same period and antenna orientation.

@mallipoo so you mounted -45deg and +45deg in 2 different poles with a distance in between right? what was your earlier numbers and whats now? how much speed gain you have got? if you can post the picture of your mounting.

@darant Hey
I am from India.

Plz Help me.
I Have 2 Questions.
1. Can we select band 3 and band 41 manually in band A and Band B? if yes, then its work fine?
2. Can we select same band in both Band A and Band B(like 3 in both A and B or 5 in both etc)? if yes, then its work fine?

@Nitin10 

1. Can we select band 3 and band 41 manually in band A and Band B? if yes, then its work fine?

Works fine in airtel and Jio, but make sure you have good signal strength in both bands, if not it will come back to single band(either A or B) after sometime.

2. Can we select same band in both Band A and Band B(like 3 in both A and B or 5 in both etc)? if yes, then its work fine?

Depends on your service provider, as I checked Airtel has this feature (eg. A:40 & B:40). this is called intraband CA.

Jio has only interband CA in my location  (eg: A:3 & B:40  ,  A:5 & B40)

But make sure you have good signal in both bands.

@Nitin10 Band 3 and Band 41 (VI) cannot be aggregated. Please see page 1. Band 41+41 is supposed to be supported by TP LINK MR600. I tried, It did not work for me. Band 41 is from Vodafone Idea.

@mallipoo  Band 3+3 Working for you? If u not tried then plz try? I have also Vodafone Idea Sim. In my area only band 3 and band 41 is working.

@Sunshine

Does the MR600 V2 Available in India? In My place the fastest CA is band 1 + band 3. Looks like V1 doesn't support CA on B1+ B3. I have ordered MR600 last week. Lets see which one I receive.

Looks like currently MR600 is out of stock in both Amazon and Flipkart. Does that mean new stock will be V2?

@mallipoo today, I've mounted each antenna on a different pole, 4 mtrs apart. Mounted them at +45°, -45° angles to ground level. 

RSRP, RSRQ have improved by one point each. SNR seems consistent.  

@Abhi093 Would vertical mounting bring better results? 

@Nitin10 Vodafone Idea SIM supports CA in 1+8, 3+8 only. 3+8 speed is good, but if disconnected, it refuses to reconnect. Band 41 is stable, but with meagre speed of 10-12 mbps.

@AP_Techie  If you are not for CA ie., only band 3, then please mount vertically. It will help. Only when you do CA, tilted mounting helps.
