- Having difficulties connecting your U.FL pigtails?
Since U.FL connectors are very small and
can be difficult to install on the first try, we suggest that you
use a locking or reverse-action
tweezer to hold the cable in place
and a
pencil eraser to push the U.FL connector down
.
- Are your TS9 pigtails a bit loose?
Lightly
squeeze the end of the TS9 connector with your
fingers
to improve it’s grip. We know its not ideal, but TS9 connectors aren’t threaded or
standardized, so TS9 ports vary in depth between routers and they may not initially stay in
place. While our adapter has been thoroughly tested, it’s not always perfect for every device.

Some Final Tips
09
- If you have extra cable, don’t coil it tightly.
If you have extra cable, make sure to keep any cable loops as large as possible to minimize any
negative side-effects (4 ft or wider loops are best).
- If data rates decrease over time, consider re-optimizing your system.
Occasionally carriers will change their towers to broadcast different bands, light up new
towers, or simply turn off existing towers altogether. If your data rates suddenly get worse, try
re-aiming your antenna(s) to get the best results.
- If you have the Log Periodic Antenna Kit, try alternative antenna mounting configurations.
For an additional performance boost with the log periodic antennas, other antenna
configurations can be tried depending on your local terrain.
»
For obstructed terrain
(i.e. locations surrounded by large buildings/hills/mountains etc.),
try mounting the antennas horizontally side-by-side.
»
For open terrain
(i.e. locations in large fields/plains/etc.), try mounting the antennas
vertically top-to-bottom.
