This way it can pick up the signal from your network and carry it directly to the antenna to provide you with a better reception and faster download speeds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The antenna is small and portable and can be stored in the glove box or a door pocket when not in use. It measures just 15cm long and has a small magnetic base that is just over 3cm in diameter. It can be mounted in seconds and won&#8217;t cause any damage to the paintwork on your vehicle.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <a title=\"Mobile Broadband Car Antenna\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/mobile-broadband-vehicle-antenna-crc9-21429\">Mobile Broadband Vehicle Antenna<\/a> is currently only available for Huawei dongles that use the CRC9 connection. \u00a0These dongles include the E156G, E160, E160G, E169, E620 &amp; E110.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\n<!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.27.4 -->\n<div class=\"quads-location quads-ad1\" id=\"quads-ad1\" style=\"float:none;margin:0px 0 0px 0;text-align:center;\">\n<div id=\"bari-widget\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is part of a series of posts on How to improve your mobile broadband signal.
