Chapter 28 Troubleshooting Note: It is best to reboot the Zyxel Device before each test measurement is taken to ensure that it is not camping on the previous cellular site. This is because the Zyxel Device can 'lock' onto the previous cellular site even when the new cellular site is at a much better signal level and quality. Although installing the Zyxel Device as high as possible is the usual rule of thumb, it is sometimes possible that the Zyxel Device is in a weak coverage spot at that specific height. Adjust the height to achieve the best service possible. Note: Cellular network signals and quality can fluctuate. A measurement taken now and a few moments later can differ substantially even if nothing apparent has changed - this can be due to many aspects, such as fading, reflections, interference, capacity due to high network traffic, etc. It is possible that the network topology and usage changes over time, even from one minute to the next as network utilization increases. If poor performance is experienced at a later stage, re-test different installation locations again. It is possible that the current serving cellular site has become over utilized or is out-of-service. As the network design and topology changes, so will the experience change, either for the better or for the worse. LTE Series User's Guide 187
