Actually TM can allow free tethering, but you need to pay for that because the terms set by SKMM. This organization must be fair to other telco. So no point to ask TM for free tethering. Only few people understand that.

M7300 v1 and v2 doesn't support fdd band 5
But v2 support tdd 38,40. So on v1 only 3g and on v2 must be connected to band 38,40 for lte.

There are 2 ways to use the modem[8372] legally with webe.
1. Buy WebeBroadband sim.
2. Subscribe to tethering services for WebeMobile.

Huawei e8372h USB type is better because you can plug to powerbank of 5000/10,000/20,000mh

E5577 and E5377 only have 1500mh battery capacity. Just up to 6hours. With combination of e8372h + 20,000mh powerbank you can surf 24 hours easily.

This is what I'm using now.

D-link dwr-116 router support tmgo. But need to subscribe tethering services.
Also tested with tplink mr3020 and working fine. Most tplink 3g/4g router support tmgo dongle.

So you got E5172s-515 that support band5?

Huawei 5172 variants:

HUAWEI E5172s-22: Band 1/3/7/8/20/38 (800/900/1800/2100/2600MHz TDD 2600MHz)

HUAWEI E5172s-920 : Band 38/40 (TDD 2300/2600MHz)

HUAWEI E5172s-515: Band 2/5/7 (850/1900/2600MHz)

Why there are are no variant that support triple band of webe
Band 5/38/40.

Just wait until the router is in your hand and test it yourself.
APN setting just enough to make the connection work.
You buy it locally or international?

Complaint for what. Webe have no contract when you subscribe, you like you stay, don't like just leave.
If there are contract that you are forced to pay monthly fee and the telco can't fullfill services as promise then complaints is acceptable.

Why need ramai2 to complaint about webe? Just go to other telco. You are not welcome by webe.

Other telco unlimited terms different from webe unlimited terms. Other telco playing with "unlimited" words for few past years ago for brainshit people that believe the word.

Still now there are telcos still playing with the "unlimited" word. Because they know Malaysian people already brain damage to believe in them.

Example : other telcos offer free basic internet/free 10gb = 64kbps?
With webe for the capped Google service still got 2mbps and for non Google services max 20mbps truly unlimited. For easy understand webe offer truly unlimited data but controlled speed only for Google services like YouTube etc.

You choose. If other telcos offer you 100gb with 64kbps,maybe you are happy by looking at gb data offer.

Only available when there are tower that supply band 38 or 40 of webe. You phone not compatible with band 5 that almost webe currently running. Webe Band 38/40 only few available right now.

Hope the modem price from TM will be half the price market. Normally the modem price subsidized by telco as their package. I'm surely grab it for the price of <RM200.

If there are smart people in TM/webe, they will have to joint venture with any modem manufacturer to produce custom hardware and software to support triple band (5/38/40). For example the usb modem dlink dwm-221 customized for TMGo we have before. By doing this, it will be easier to customer to have proper modem supplied by telco.

Huawei already released the modem that support triple band of webe(5/38/40) but you need to pay premium for the modem. RM1k? The model is Huawei E5787s-33a. Time to ask TM to subsidized the modem price.

For now, it's not worth. Wait until webe implement band 38/40 widely. maybe within 2-3 years. Now stick to band5 and find the way to maximize speed. For example use external antenna for modem or use booster/repeater if your area the RSRP more than -100dBm.

From my test in my area that not have many webe users
-90dBm can get webe band5 full speed of 20-25mbps.
-95dBm = 8-12mbps
-100dBm = 6-10mbps
-110dBm = 4-6mbps
-115dBm = 2-4mbps

All depend on quantity of users on one tower not all place generate same results.

You are right. In my opinion any modem priced more than RM400, it's better to use smart phone as hotspot. My redmi note 3 already have most of the modem features. Enough for my needed and used . All depends on individual need.

My set is ap set. I think it is same hardware with Malaysian set. Kenzo version of snapdragon. Need root for network signal guru. If your speed test is more than 25mbps, mean you are connected to band 38 or 40. Webe band5 maximum speed 25mbps based on 5MHz bandwidth.

Modem use with antenna. Still in testing. Without antenna RSRP is more than -110dBm.with antenna got - 90dBm. Place the antenna indoor just enough to get 20mbps. Without antenna got fastest speed only 8mbps.Will mount on top of roof soon when have time.



When adjusting antenna, I'm looking at RSRP for the main factor of affecting internet speed. But all related within RSSI, RSRP, RSRQ and RSNR.

Modem dongle to be used with webe broadband. Webe mobile use on xiaomi redmi note. I have both.

The signal info from modem web interface. Connect hp to modem wifi, open modem web interface, check the signal status. While adjusting the antenna, just look at phone in hand. By using directional antenna, the signal and speed will be maintained all time. No line drop like using omni directional antenna, because the modem on static place and radio wave on static direction. I got 15-20mbps all time all day. Internet speed consistent like using cable Internet.

Its Huawei e8372h-608. You can get it from sing4g on Lelong/lazada/11street. The price about RM220 including shipping. Or get it from taobao/aliexpress about RM190 shipped.
