Yeah I have no issue with 3G inside my house, its actually really good.
4G I barely get anything inside maybe one bar at the most.
I also have the problems with the WiFi that people are mentioning, but I dont feel as though the speed is weak, but 1 bar at most or 3 bars intermittent if I'm not right next to the router.
Do you mind explaining what the RX power numbers represent, since I have no clue.
I am learning as I go here. You should have a TX, RX and RSSI value in there somewhere.
TX= Transmitting Power
RX=Receiving Power
RSSI=Received signal strength indication
They should be measured in dBm, which is a way to measure a signals strength. It should be negative most of the time which is fine. dBm is a logarithmic function, meaning that 0 dBm is actually equal to 1 Watt of transmitting power. -80 dBm is roughly equal to 10pW or 10^-12 Watts.
It's great and all that I can copy from Wikipedia, but actually understanding it takes a little bit more thinking.
If a cell phone is trying to get a cell signal (Scanning) it would use the highest power setting available to it (I think it's 2 or 3 watts) in order to find the tower. So the higher the number, the worse the signal? This is what is confusing me. I read somewhere that the closer to zero, the better.
I even put my phone into the microwave to see if the dBm would change, it did. Then it jumped to Verizon's network and I lost faith in my microwaves ability to not fry me when cooking food. The internet is a great thing, but it's making my head hurt,
If any of this is wrong or backwards, feel free to tear me apart. I love learning to.
... I can't understand how to start and in which way I should go.
