Poynting XPOL-2-5G Antenna

This antenna has worked wonders at my caravan, were about 3k from the nearest mast with no direct line of site due to lots of mature trees. I have no phone single and with our tp link router installed had a 25% signal and very poor speed about 1 Meg with constant drop out. Installed this at the weekend, aimed towards the mast direction and now have a solid 2 bars on the router, 75% signal strength and download speed between 16 & 22 Meg with 6 upload. Now we can stream movies and make calls via WhatsApp etc. Quite expensive but it worth it in our situation.

Been using this aerial for about 3 weeksSuperb !Costly but certainly does what it says it will doViewed reviews on line and explanations of its constructionWell worth a lookSpeed-test it regularly (ookla)Generally 17-13. 20-14 . 22-15. 29-21. As examples ( down -up)Always constantly 4 or of 5 bars on o2 network and linked to Netgear Nighthawk.I’m in a notorious bad o2 signal area but VERY pleased with this Poynting aerialEasy to set up ( it’s directional)Superb streamingIt’s only down side will be it’s priceyHowever in this case you do get what you are paying forHave tried at least 3 other “cheaper “ aerials absolutely no comparisonIf you want a reliable signal and constant do go for the Poynting xpol 2-5gHighly recommendMalc P

It's quite expensive when you can get a pair of aerials for a tenner which may give you almost the same effect, so watch out. In my case I am happy I spent the money, it got me from a shaky 10-13Mb per sec to a pretty reliable 15-25Mb per sec which makes a huge difference. Also by a wired quirk I found the signal at my house was strongest at ground level where the ability to mount it on the roof was of no value. For most people I would guess roof mounting would be best, in which case a couple of cheap aerials are unlikely to do the job.

This is awesome , increased broadband speed down load by double and upload speeds by six times ,it's a remarkable piece of engineering.mast is 6.7 km away this antenna has a range of 32 km so is well in range.

So like others I tried cheap aerials and got no difference on our Gigacube compared to its internal aerials. But this one really did make a difference. We went from about 25MB on 4G to 120MB+ on a mix of 4G/5G. So it does work. However the Gigacube is weird. If you move the router leaving the aerial in the same place your connection rates vary. So it's still using its internal aerials somehow. But whatever, the end result was that it's over five times faster and the whole family is delighted with their zooms and video gaming. So we're keeping it.It took several hours to work out the best spot. For us, this was simply in the attic, with the router and aerial inside the roof space. Sounds crazy, but it worked better than being outside and it was much easier to fit! Although I thought this aerial was not directional, I found slight movements did make a big difference. The unit is pretty big and a very ugly white, so I'm glad it's not outside the house.Yes, you can get it quite a bit cheaper elsewhere, but with Amazon you pay the extra to have that guarantee of being able to return it. And with broadband aerials, that's a wise policy because you've no idea if it'll work in your situation!

I got this to increase my signal strength on the three network. Going from the routers own aerial to using this say a small gain of around 20% - Further investigation shows this does support band 32 (1400Mhz) which three are using in my area - I think vodafone use this also.There is 2 different models of this arial. V2 and V3 - The one i got was V3, which will support more 5g frequency's but less on the 4g.I think this is a good product so will be searching for the v2 model of this aerial.

Total waste of money!! Did not increase my internet speed from my current antena, which was less than a quarter of the price of this. If anything even made my speed more unstable. would return if I could

We struggled for a couple of years to try and get some decent Internet in our rural area in Cheshire. After trying many different approaches we decided to go for an aerial at the highest point that was suitable. We added to this a TP link router and a Smarty data Sim and we now get on average 40 MB throughout the house using a Google Mesh system. This has been a revelation and has changed our viewing as we can now stream without problem and have no issues now getting access to the Internet.
