how to get more then 2 bars on my home internet gateway?
We just got a new home internet gateway and I can’t get it over 2 bars in 5 different places I have tried putting it in the house. Am I doing something wrong? Because I’m doing what it’s telling me ...

This happens for me, too. The tower with the N71 band (slower than the N41 band) is much closer than the N41 tower, and the lower frequencies of the N71 band give it farther range, so my strongest signal ends up being the slower speeds. I keep the can oriented where it picks up the N41 with faster speeds and two bars.
