At Daytona International Speedway, you can generally anticipate decent quality and robust connection strength, except in turn 1.
Cellular reception for viewing devices
The pitlane and paddock areas have good cellular signal.
To guarantee a smooth live stream, it is advisable to conduct a speed test, ensuring your device maintains a speed of at least 5-10 Mbps.
As with any track, ensure your viewing device is connected over LTE or 5G networks, and avoid Wi-Fi at all costs.
On-track cell reception
A known dead-zone with no cellular reception is present into turn 1.
This drop will often recover by turn 3, but may sometimes take longer, especially if the modem connection has not been restored by the time the car enters turn 7 where cell reception is poor.
The remainder of the track will usually have good performance, with occasional video skips between turn 8 and 11 at the Bus Stop.
The Node 1 modem will experience longer drop outs and make take over a minute to reconnect if the network is dropped entirely.
The Node 2 modem performs much better, and you should experience only minor skips in the video.
The GPX Stream system is highly affected by large crowds and overloaded cellular towers - as such, the system should not be expected to perform adequately during events such as the Rolex 24H.
