My RUT950 died after 8 years, so I got a new RUTX50. I have a permanent setup on my home quite close to the city. The previous RUT950 had 2 mobile antenna connectors, RUTX50 now has 4, so I connected two of them to a Mikrotik mANT LTE 5o (5dBi omi) that is mounted on the roof mast and two more connectors with the antenna that it came with. Even now I have a significant improvement in speeds (RUT950 was doing 10-60Mbit DOWN and 10-30Mbit UP, RUTX is doing 80-130Mbit DOWN, 30Mbit UP).
Unfortunately, the upgrade comes with momentary signal drops, which I didn't experience before. This is noticeable especially in gaming, but also when streaming a video. Sometimes its every 1-2 minutes and sometimes its doing fine for long periods of time. This is something that I didn't experience on the old RUT950.
The signal values are not bad I think, even though I probably don't have a direct view to the celltower (its slightly just over the hill). The gsmctl -I returns quite a bit of neighbouring cells so I think these might be attempts to reconnect?
//5G is still rolling out in Czech Republic, so even though there is supposed to be coverage in my city for my ISP, I'm unable to register to network, so I switched to LTE only.
I'm using latest RUTX_R_00.07.03.2.
