Howdy folks,

 

I just got a M1 on AT&T and wondering about external antennas for this unit.

I am having issues because the specs indicate there is a 4x4 MINO internal antenna, but there are only two TS-9 antenna connectors.

Questions:

1) If external antennas are used does this mean its operating in 2x2 MIMO?

2) If with external antennas it is in fact  2x2 MIMO operation, does this affect the performance of the device?

3) Please proide recomendations for outdoor/mobile mount MIMO omni antenna.

 

Cheers,

Mike

I too need the answers to the above questions.  We really need for the Netgear engineers to weigh in on this and give us some answers.  I am moving in the direction of eliminating my DSL service but my M1 only gets 2 bars of signal in my house.  As soon as I take it outside it goes to three bars of signal.  I need information on external outside antenna configuration.  Please give us some help Netgear.  Thanks in advance.
