The disparity in signal reception between modems and mobile phones can be attributed to the varying capabilities of their respective antennas.

Mobile phones have advanced and more efficient antennas, allowing them to detect stronger signals than modems consistently.

This advantage translates to superior signal detection capabilities, enabling mobile phones to outperform modems in maintaining a stable connection to cellular networks.

Consequently, when faced with weak signal conditions, mobile phones may still capture enough signal strength to sustain a connection, while modems might struggle to do so, leading to the display of "No service" in such instances.

If you suspect the signal strength in your current location is sufficient, and the modems fail to connect, please contact our technical support team via the live chat at https://proxidize.com to confirm.
