I recently switch (a.k.a was dumped) by Millenicom and so I picked up a Verizon UDP plan. Both are currently active, so I wanted to test both to see if there was any difference.
Speed test wise, they are absolutely identical. However, Signal Strength wise - I am getting different numbers.
My setup includes a Peplink balance and a AE301134 Wilson DualBand 50ohm Panel Antenna.
On the left is my old Millenicom SIM in a UML290. On the right is my new Verizon SIM in a UML295. In both cases I was assigned the exact same IP.
One shows a signal strength of -73dBm and the other -95dBm. Both were connected to the same antenna.
What is causing the discrepancy?
Thanks.
