Posted before but didn't get any answers.
I have the 4GEE home router connected to a 4G antenna to the roof that's omni directional. It's been fine for the past year but recently I keep getting internet disconnections on Wifi and LAN even as the router reports it's still connected to the internet. I've checked the service in my area and there are no reports of issues.
Every day now the internet will just drop randomly for a 1-2 minutes and come back, despite the antenna being omni directional and pointed at the tower. the consistency I used to have is just gone.See Below my signal statistics reported by the router:
Network type: | 4G | |
RSRP: | -75 dBm | |
RSSI: | -39 dBm | |
Band: | 3 | |
Despite ideal conditions I'm still getting drops despite the router saying it's still connected to the internet and I will lose my work progress and pages will just stop loading randomly.
I've tested with various devices with a Desktop PC connected on LAN and Wifi Devices all will have dropped internet connections at the same time when it goes even as they stay connected on LAN and Wifi.
My guess is there is an issue at the tower still or it might be the device itself getting stuck randomly.
Edit:
Tested with Internal and external antenna as well. Either case the connection to the internet will still randomly drop.
When running a ping test when it happens, pings will time out.

I have the same issue with my 4G EE wifi router that I bought in October last year. I have to reboot the d**n thing every day, sometimes twice a day. It does my head in!

No, they are pretty poor. It was fine when I first got it (which seems to be a theme) but has now got so annoying as it just decides to disconnect from the internet at random but daily.
