EthanielUK On the upside, at least you have found that there is a signal near your home!
Not sure about leaving a modem outside on the windowsill - Rain damage and risk of electrical item blowing up? How to keep it plugged in and close window?

The modem is a very small box. It's used for SIM cards and runs off USB. I have a 20,000w portable power bank, and I can plug it into that. As for the rain, a thin plastic bag tied up would suffice. These are the extremes we have to go through to get something. It's not quite on the windowsill either; it's three steps beyond that behind a fence door where it all happens.
This is going to be tricky... But there has to be a way, and at a low cost just havent found the answer yet..
