Nighthawk mobile m2 router

I have just bought a night hawk router mobile m2100.  I am using an EEsim card.

 

download speeds vary between 12 and 28 mbps

upload speeds vary between 1 and 8 mbps

stability is 25%-75%

 

what affects performance and how can I improve it?

 

 

My landline has 90% stability but 17 mbps download and 2mbps upload. 


I am based in England in Somerset

    Hi Albauk, 

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    Data transfer speed depends on signal strength and interfering radio sources like electrical generators or other mobile router WiFi devices. Review the following possibilities:
    • Check your signal strength and network type (for example, LTE 4G is generally faster than 3G).
    • Check WiFi interference by powering the mobile router off and on to find a better WiFi channel.
    • Switch WiFi channel from 2.4 GHz to 5 GHz.
    • If the network signal is low, consider using external antennas or cradle the mobile router with built-in high-gain antennas.
