Is my router broken or..?
Are you experiencing issues with your router? It seems the lower ports are significantly slower than the upper ones, and the bottom port completely disconnects internet access. You've tried changing antenna cables but haven't noticed much improvement. Sometimes both ports perform worse together. On your Huawei B628-350 4G router, this pattern is common.
Do you have the antennas set up side by side without being parallel? Make sure they are at a right angle—like one horizontal and the other upright.
It has a single antenna connected to two cables. It performed well initially, but I’m not sure it’s been functioning as effectively over time.
You have the option to swap out the antennas. The preferred setup allows adjusting both positions flexibly.
I have something similar but not identical. It has two cables and resembles it. It performed well initially, but now it seems to function better if you use just one upper port on the router and the second one doesn’t work alone. However, when any of the antenna connectors in the first port are connected, it works fine. It feels like there’s an issue with the second router port, but after plugging both cables in, the download speed nearly doubles.
These TS-9 antenna connectors let you connect to 4G/LTE signals in your neighborhood. Since cellular coverage differs by place, you need to determine the optimal antenna angle and position of your gateway device inside your home. If you believe the connector is faulty, consult your ISP for a replacement.
