5.2 SIGNAL SELECTION
Signal Selection allows you to manually select the 3G signal input to be either the internal
antennas or an external antenna (not included). By default, a stable signal is obtained from
the antennas built into the gateway. To use an external 3G antenna, please connect it to the
Antenna Connector next to the Power Input on the back of the gateway.
If the external antenna does not support 850 MHz frequency, please go to Next G Settings >
Settings and select All Bands/Automatic before selecting signal input.
The gateway can detect and automatically select the higher signal strength between either
the internal antennas or from the external input. To initiate the auto select process, please
select Auto Select and click on Save/Apply. The Auto Select process takes about 170 seconds.
Close the web browser on your computer and do not use the Internet during the whole
process.
The results of the selection will be shown on screen. If the internal and external signals are
on the same level, the gateway will select the Internal Antennas as input.
The gateway is able to remember the last selected signal input before power-off. If the signal
input is changed to the External Antenna it will obtain a signal from the external antenna
after restart.
