Wateen WiMax Signal Problem — Solved

I was very excited the day i bought Wateen Wimax. But it all vanished when I came to know that there are NO SIGNALS in my room. I am living in a hostel. I tried the device in my friend’s room and after a lot of efforts and positional adjustments I was able to get signals to connect to Wateen. The speed was ok.

I shifted my computer to my friend’s room, and every time I had to use my computer or internet I had to go to his room. This was very inconvinient. So I decided that I will check device in my room and if I am not able to connect I will quit Wateen.

I brought device to my room. There were no signals. Then I put the device in window outside my room and it connected. I started thinking about ways I can put device outside and use internet.

My window is covered by wire gauze. And this wire gauze was interfering with signals. Thats why signals were there outside  but they never entered my room.

I made a hole in the wire gauze approximately of the size of device. The plan was that I will put device ouside and use it. But that was not a very good idea.  I would have to place my device ouside everytime I use net and then take it back in after use. Because, my room is on ground floor and I surely didn’t want anybody to run away with the device :-) .

I got an idea and I placed my device inside my room infront of the small window i created in wire gauze. WOW It connected :D . All my headache was gone. Although I am not getting full speed I have subscribed for But still its Good.

Below are the pictures that will help you understand What I did.

Update: One thing I forgot to mention. To get good signals you have to rotate the device to position of maximum signals. I hope you got the point.

    I just connected to wateen wireless network a day ago. I was quite exited to having wireless internet in karachi as I have been using PTCL DSL and had lots of problems with telephone line. I am using a N-Extreem wireless router connected to the modem but, the surfing is so disappointing as the download speed was just 16 -20 Kb/sec. Could anyone help me out to boost my internet surfing or would advice me on swithcing to some other ISP.

    Tnx

    All right guys let’s face it. Wateen is damn to costly and they put more than taxes and fees you can even count. This is rental charges this is installation charges this is connection charges this is goverment tax this is my tax this is your tax this tax is for you under shave. I hate those guys.

    does wateen have a sharing site??

  17. Ahsan

    What you mean by sharing site??

  18. Ahmad ~AiZ~

    i dont think they have a sharing site!! Sharing site is like the world call has downloads.go4b.net.pk ,wateen users can access it too, but only worldcall user can fully utilize it!! meaning worldcall connection of 128kbps gives u downloading speed of 16 KBYTESps, there is difference between bits n bytes (i am sure most of u know that), but when they download movies or stuff from go4b site they get download speed of 230-256kBps…. its frustrating that wateen dont have that kind of thing…makes me wanna switch to worldcall but cant do that either,theres no wireing in my area..n I dont think there will be soon!!

    GLAD to help ya all
