AOG loosing RTK

I can connect to AgIO using my 5g mobile hotspot and RTK2GO. However, AOG will operate fine for A few minutes then drop RTK. It then goes into float for a few min, establishes RTK then repeat. Sometime it reverts between DGPS AND FLOAT. I will order another ANN-MB to make sure it isn’t the issue. Could this have anything to do with RTK2GO or may connectivity settings?

Is it possibly a 5g issue? Im having terrible trouble with a claas autosteer system running rtk when im in 5g areas

If it was an internet problem, seems like you would totally lose RTK (go to GPS Single). sounds like a bad antenna or something.

I run 5G all the time, no trouble yet.

Dumb question maybe, but how far are you from your base? Less than 20 miles?

I recently had a problem with SMA connector on F9P board. If I only lay a finger on antenna cable rtk goes to dgps and float. I contacted ardusimple and they sent DHL to pick up my receiver and repaired it completly for free. It took 2 weeks tho but… it was free.

It’s usually running 4G/LTE, but the behavior seems to be the same for both. So I’m thinking that is not the problem. I have heard of the Class machines having some 5G issues

Great to hear! They are expanding 5G in my area at the moment.

My bad is about 6 miles away at the furthest point.

This seems to be my problem. Even the slightest touch at the SMA connector and it starts jumping around. Thank you for the help. I will contact ardusimple to see if my F9P is still warranted.

This is now what I get when the board is connected. New antennae will be here in a few days. Could that be it?

I cant tell from picture, did you contact ardusimple, they will ask for some video proofs and diagnose the problem
