Does anyone have a recommendation for an external directional antenna. It has to be directional. Amongst other things it will be used at Cadwell Park for the bike racing. They have an on-site mast and during BSB race meetings they turn the data off. It used to be just race days but it's now the whole 4 days of the meeting. They deny this but we've been going long enough to know what's going on. Anyway, I'd like to be able to connect to another cell mast that's away from the circuit.

 

Thanks in advance.

The possibility of replacing the external antennas on your TP-Link LTE Gateway router depends on the model. TP-Link LTE Gateway routers have two types of external antennas: LTE antennas and Wi-Fi antennas.

If your router has two undetachable external Wi-Fi antennas, they cannot be replaced. However, if your router has two detachable external 4G LTE antennas, you can replace them.

When replacing the 4G LTE antennas, there are a few important considerations:

1. Both antennas should be changed simultaneously with antennas that have the same specifications.

2. The replacement antennas should have the same interface type (SMA male) and support the same frequency range as the original antennas.

3. It's crucial to maintain the distance between the new antennas, ensuring that it is not less than the distance between the original antennas.

Please note that installing third-party antennas may impact device performance and compatibility, and we cannot guarantee the performance of the device after such installations.
