I noticed the modem antenna wire is rusted and you've tried connecting it to the outdoor unit, but you're still unsure about what might be wrong. Could someone assist you with this issue?

It seems the connection between the ground and the antenna wasn't established.

The base is made from the coax sheath. You need to take off the shrink tube at the end to reveal some and follow the same steps on the modem side, connecting the ground to the correct spot on the antenna. Blue indicates signal, pink means ground.

Perhaps uncertain. We don't know what antenna you're using, and it will rely on the condition of your wiring work.
