How to Lock LTE Bands and Why | Teltonika Networks

Ғылым және технология

Since cellular connectivity solutions are fast to deploy, cost-efficient and widely available LTE Band locking solves a problem in areas that are close to the borders of foreign countries the cellular provider signals overlap, so your router might be periodically switching between different operators which affect the stability of your connection.
Locking your industrial device to a specific LTE band can have a significant effect on your Internet connection speed and reliability because the band that is chosen automatically might not be the one that will offer the fasters or the most stable connection available.
If you have any questions for the Teltonika Networks team visit community.teltonika.lt or contact Teltonika sales manager.

    hi, this was a great video, thanks for sharing with us. I am using tp-link and was having tough time having a good connection. So tried locking among 1,3,5 bands. It gets connected but I still see 30-40 seconds of ping timeouts intermittently. What could be the problem, network, the router, or something else?

  • @TeltonikaNetworks

    @TeltonikaNetworks

    First of all, you find out what your operator supports bands. Next, using a phone and cell connection apps, figure out which is the closest cell tower and what bands your phone uses to connect. Then you will be sure you are connecting to the correct bands, and you should get a better signal. Also, when pinging, make sure the target server is close to your location.

    I use RUT X11 in our boat. We travel around and get all type of different connections and bands. It would be great if Teltonika would have an option that check if GPS position is not moving after 10 minutes and then start to test different bands to see what station I should use. There is global speed test pages and API's to use for a solution like that. If you know any terminal/bash command I can change band with, I could code that solution myself. ( I already have some own code running on X11 for some of my projects)
