Cell spot interfering with regular wi-fi
I received my cell spot yesterday and plugged it in the way it says to and it seems to be working great. I now have full service where I had almost none before. However, trying to run any apps on...
What I would suggest doing is running a speed test with the cell spot plugged in and without it plugged in and seeing if there is a difference. I would also make sure that you have enough bandwidth to support streaming on multiple devices. There is always a chance that a device on the network is doing updates like a computer as a example which would use some of your limited bandwidth and could be the cause of your issues.
The cell spot how ever is unlikely to be the culprit unless other people are useing the device to stream video and such. As things stand there are to many factors for me to peg a issue but I would start with the basic trouble shooting steps, including powering off the router for 40 secs and then turning it back on. Hope the info helped./
I am experiencing some very issues. When the Cell spot is connected to my network, many of my WiFi connections drop repeatedly. My WiFi devices are virtually unusable.
I just got a new OnePlus 7t that has the 600mhz frequency. This means that my device is now picking up towers it didn't before. It doesn't want to stay connected to one but bounces back and forth causing me to lose cell service. The same thing happens when using WiFi calling. Hence the T-Mobile Cell Spot.
If I unplug the spot, WiFi works. If I plug it back in, it breaks.
I will try moving the cell spot away from my router to see if this corrects it.
