5 minutes to obtain a Fix with NTRIP

[Mario_Katic (Mario_K)]

I have the same problem. Sometimes when it fix is lost it takes 5 minutes in open space to get fix again. Connect, disconnect to NTRIP or even restart RS2, doesn’t help

Hi Mario,

Do you work with Emlid Caster or some NTRIP service? Do you have SIM card in Reach RS2, or is it connected to a Wi-Fi?

Connecting to NTRIP service using RV2 and hot-spot on my cellphone

Sometimes I need to wait for 5 minutes to get fix. Before update, I never had to wait more then 1 minut, even in urban areas

How far away is the CORS station?

[Mario_Katic (Mario_K)]

35 km. I know that is a lot, but it is the flat reagion of my country, no mountins or evwn hills of any kind.

I was on open space, no trees or utility poles nearby

35 km is actually fine for Reach RS2. In open space, it indeed shouldn’t take that much time to obtain a Fix.

Please record Base corrections, Raw data, and Position logs on your rover for 10-15 minutes. I’ll check what’s data coming to the devices and how it looks like. Maybe it will shed some light.

I found out that my problem is NTRIP service provider!

Connecting to diferent NTRIP service, or using onother RS2 as a base, gets me FIX in no time.
I have updated the firmware and it is the same as before.
