When I set up my exterior antenna, interior antenna, power booster, and router in my stick house, one of the requirements was to have enough seperation between the inside and outside antenna's to prevent feedback between the two. I thought I had enough, like 20' or so but I was still having questionable performance from the inside antenna and router. I later placed some foil faced cardboard as a shield between the inside antenna and the outside antenna. The inside antenna is mounted in the attic crawl space.
It seemed to help with the signal strength quite a bit, and speeds improved inside as a result.
My question is, in the RV my router and power booster is mounted in the closet in the rear of the rig. The exterior antenna is mounted on the ladder just about 2' away. Would there be a benefit in shielding the wall that separates the two antenna's?
The reason being that sometimes even in decent signal areas the signal from the air card mounted in the router is sketchy, and simple pages like this forum will struggle to load. I am wondering if the relationship between the router and exterior antenna is interfering with each other.
As a bit of background I am running W10 on my laptop and have Norton installed as Internet Security. Your opinion's guys?
