Review on πŸ“‘ Premiertek Wide Band 698-2700MHz Yagi Antenna N Female - Non-Retail Packaging - Beige by Reggie Kern

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cable cut after 20 years

After 20 years I decided to shorten the cable. Ever since I bought an RV last spring, I've been experimenting with the best way to connect WiFi in my RV using an unlimited data plan and a 4G LTE router. It worked so well that I decided to mount a much larger MIMO antenna outside of my home using two Premiertek Yagi antennas mounted on a retractable flagpole. Two Premiertek Yagi antennas provide a whopping 50MB download speed and 40MB download from a cell tower 6 miles away. This speed is enough to provide WiFi for 5 PCs, 4 Smart TVs, 3 security cameras and 6 Alexa Echo Dots. Before I cut the cable, I had 200 megabytes of download and 12 megabytes of download, but that was over fiber and cost $1,200 a year. I really didn't need all that bandwidth. After 20 years, I paid the cable company $14,400. I would say that what I paid for these two Premiertek Yagi antennas and router was well worth it.
