My Wilson Sleek makes data download speed WORSE

Im hoping some tech experts can help me with this puzzle: I have a Verizon MiFi for wifi. Cradled in my Sleek,signal jumps from 2 bars to 4--and signal with Sleek is at -44db. Heres the issue: Without the Sleek my download speed in this area is around 7Mbps, with the Sleek ( and better signal strength) it drops to about .8Mbps. MiFi is set for LGE. That's point eight Mbps!

But what version sleek ?

Does the sleek cover the same bands that the MiFi uses for lte
Or is the MiFi switching to 3g or 1x, became that is the strong band coming from the sleek


Mifi is set for LTE only. Sleek is the 4g version

Sleek is an old product, perhaps not suited for today's technology. Get a WeBoost.

I've experienced the exact same thing on AT&T. Only correlation I have is proximity to a military base. No answer from at&t or willson or weboost or whoever they are now.

That's happened to me before. Weird.
