I just bought two cross-polarized MIMO antennas with one horizontal antenna and one vertical antenna on each wire. Question is, how are the four LTE antennas configured - lower-left, upper-left, upper-right, lower-right. (There is actually six antennas, where the two uppermost internal ones are used for wifi - I assume either dual-band 2.4 and 5GHz or Tx/Rx configuration on one of either bands.) Which one of the TS-9 ports is the receiver and which one is the transmitter? Would it be best to do a dual polarization on the download (Rx) and ditto on the upload (Tx), or use cross-polarization on either one?

(can't edit post no more) I guess it depends on the frequencies used. So let me clarify my question: are the internal antennas preconfigured for specific bands, or do they choose automatically depending on the local conditions?
