Photos very slow to send
I am wondering whether you can help answer a couple of questions. I am working on a dog trapping operation and using my Spartan AT&T trailcam. We have set the photo burst to 1, with the smallest photo size, and trigger interval 0 seconds. The camera has about 4 bars of signal strength but it is taking FOREVER to send each photo so we are missing a lot of activity between photos. 1)Which would be the best antenna to use to boost the cell signal and speed up transmission of the photos 2) does having multiple recipients for the photos slow down the transmission speed? (I can remove one recipient and just have a single recipient for all photos if that is the case). Thanks so much for your help!

With four bars of signal strength, there isn’t any booster antenna that is going to speed things up.
It sounds like you are using Auto and normal thumbnails. I’m running one of those (assuming you’re talking about an ATTb or ATTi) and was getting pics from a little over 1 minute to about 2 minutes apart (but some of the longer time may have been because I was inside so didn’t trigger the camera immediately after it sent). I’m running premium and the app, though, but also getting pics to email, which is forwarded to text.How far apart are the time stamps from picture to picture when there is constant activity in front of the camera?
I don’t think that multiple email addresses slow anything down.
