LTe Speeds seem slow.

Wed Jun 15, 2022 9:29 am

Hi all, I've just got my router working (new to Router_OS) and I am noticing that my throughput is way down on what I would have thought normal.
Mostly the Rx for the Lte1 interface sits about 11.6 Mbps. That's my problem. It was going even slower initially since I had set the firewall to log fasttrack packets, now fixed by disabling that.

RSSI = -25 dBm
RSRP = -59 dBm
SINR = 10 dB
RSRQ = -10 dB
RSRQ = -8.0 dB

I am no expert, but as google doesn't seem to indicate that those numbers are bad in terms of the cell connection.
I am using a dedicated commercial amplifier though, so would not expect signal to be an issue.

Other settings tested:
I tried setting the LTE Band to 20 in the the Lte1 interface settings, but this killed it to like 1 Mbps. So its now not defined, which has increased the speed.
Network mode has 3g unchecked, so only Lte and 5g are checked - its an Lte mast though.

Is there some other bottleneck in the device software or other trick I am missing that could be causing this behavior?

Many thanks.

Those values are good...
You don't mention what LTE device you' re using with what modem... ?
Also, ROS version, firmware version and modem version ?
