Hi
I've recently installed an rutx50 with four external antennas onto a ship and it operates fairly well.
A problem I've had, is that the modem always connects to strongest signal strength tower and due to the remote areas of operation, this is often a tower which only offers LTE band 28, with very low capacity, hence throughput is poor.
The only way I've managed to fix this issue is to disable LTE band 28 entirely, which then causes the modem to connect to a larger tower with multiple bands and high capacity, be it at lower signal strength, but due to CA on theses towers, the throughput is much better.
Question is, I don't really want to disable band 28 entirely, I just want the modem to not use band 28 by itself, this is because the low capacity towers nearly always only have band 28 and thus disabling band 28 stops the modem using theses small capacity cell towers.
The larger towers also have band 28 in a much larger capacity, thus i would ideally like to utilise band 28 when the modem is connected to theses towers, hence my question is, ia there a command or way to make the modem only utilise band 28 when using CA with another band?
