KUMA PRO 5G Antenna for Router Modem Gateway Mobile Hotspot - High Gain Omnidirectional 4 x 4 MiMo LTE 4G Antenna Outdoor for Caravan Motorhome - Compatible with Vodafone EE O2 Three - SMA Connectors

Works well at caravan in Berwick where signal is poor

Having searched the forums for suggestions for a RELIABLE mobile internet set up for my boat, I went for a Huawei B535 Router and needed an external antenna to support it. Many people were suggesting the Poynting but I preferred the aesthetics of the Kuma. Well, looks aren’t everything and the signal was non existent! Thankfully, I’d also purchased a Poynting XPOL and after swapping the leads, the difference was like night and day! From 0/5 signal Bars to 4/5!! So, if you’re looking for a good external antenna to support a mobile SIM card router avoid the Kuma, it’s absolute junk!

Installed easily, instructions very simple. Took my 12 Mb/s download speed to 38 Mb/s used with Kuma connect lite 4g on EE . Good quality coax, Sadly it needed SMA adapters as they are different connections despite being the same brand that’s why I gave it four stars.

Kuma E-zi directional antenna . After speaking with Kuma customer service I took the plunge to purchase the E-zi antenna as they assured me I should see better speed than the puck that was included with my KUMA CONNECT PRO – 4G CONNECT LiTE Router + 4G LTE Roof-Mounted Pro Antenna kit , the E-zi was not available when I purchased the connect pro. From start to finish the installation was easy just make sure you use an app to find the direction of a mast and then aim the unit in the right direction and check your app for a speed test then in small increments move the E-zi unit and do another speed test once you are happy that you have the best figures you can get gently tighten the unit in position. I have given 5 stars for ease of installation and value but only 4 stars to weatherproof as I haven’t had the unit outside that long but should there be any problems Kuma offer a 2 year warranty so no need to worry . The attached figures show my Connect Pro with just the internal antennas fitted (top figure) then with the omni puck external antenna (middle figure) and then with the E-zi directional antenna (bottom figure) . Based in rural Devon with no line of sight due to the rolling hills , very impressed this is one item that won’t be returned to Amazon and a much better internet connection than BT broadband, SIM card used was Vodafone but have also ordered a sim from smarty to trythat . If your in doubt just contact Kuma customer service if only all customer service’s where like them , excellent.

Aerial only up a couple of weeks and sealant around box coming away.

I don’t know how to get a boost for my internet with this but I couldn’t find it relevant or even recommendable a because this does not increase my 5G internet signal at all and I have tried to use many speed test applications to see the internet signal and I always got same bad results.Would be helpful if I could have a technical assistant to come at my place to re-install and check if I did something wrong or the antenna needs to be replaced!

Just fitted this to our caravan and it has worked great with out TPLink Mr200 router giving us around 30mbps inside a metal shed! Unfortunately the threaded part was too short to go through the caravan roof enough to put the nut on so it is held with its own seal and siliconed on but looks really neat and tidy, the wires are also a little long but our aerial os right above the router whereas others may have to go further

Hard to get signal in rural areas but all in all ok
