Hi,
I got a Nighthawk M5 (MR5200) and an iPhone. Both have a SIM Card from the same provider (Digicel) with the exact same subscription and having them next to each other, I get 8MB/s over the Wifi-Hotspot from my iPhone, but only 2MB/s over the M5!?
Any ideas what could make such a difference? In general I get always less throughput over the M5 compared to the personal hotspot on iPhone.
What could i check / tweak to improve my data throughput over M5?
I'm currently surfing over Digicel in Antigua, West Indies.
thanks for any input!

Please confirm you are using MR5200-100NAS device. Looks Digicel just support LTE bands for now?
If you can provide the bands supported by Digicell, that will be helpful.
Thanks
