Last year I got a Sumpack from 7-11.
Then bought Borneo plan RM15 at U Mobile App.

Ok, thank you. maybe it's easier I get SIM from 7-11.

umobile at my home has always performed poorly. today i took a look at my router's stats and saw these:

RSSI: -69dBm
RSRP: -99dBm
RSRQ: -12dB
SINR: -2dB

is there anyone telco expert that can decode the numbers and tell me why umobile is so bad? i think RSRQ is looking particularly bad. due to congestion?

If this article is correct, then your RSRP of 99 showed you are on the edge of the cell tower coverage...

netmonster. TA value how far the tower

RSSI: -69dBm you can see the tower
how bad is bad ?
do speedtest
look at ping, upload, download speed
lock 4G band 1 3 7
5G DNB / 5G ultra
some band are congested

1 bar most of the time, even though my RSSI is better than yours.

speedtest seems ok but intermittent connection failures.

no using 5G, just 4G/LTE.

.
My Android device is -96dBm (= signal strength)(>Settings >About xxx >Status Info >SIM Card status) on 4G LTE showing 3 bars out of 4 and good speedtest of >20Mbps.
....... I can get up to -90dBm if I put my device nearer towards outside my house = less objects blocking the signal from the nearest cell tower.

Maybe try putting your device nearer to an open window/door facing outside.
.

don't think so. my signal power at -69dBm much is stronger than yours. the problem is that my signal quality RSRQ is too low, maybe due to noise and interference.

just took a peek.

RSSI: -63dBm
RSRP: -94dBm
RSRQ: -15dB
SINR: -8dB

RSSI -63dBm gives only 1 bar and quality RSRQ gotten worse.

Fyi, .......

GEMINI AI Overview:

A Signal-to-Interference-Plus-Noise Ratio (SINR) below 0 dB means there is more interference and noise in the signal than the desired signal itself, resulting in a poor or unusable connection. This is often caused by physical obstructions, distance from the cell tower, or network congestion.

boy oh boy, the bestest modem router 5G you can have in the market.
openwrt fw.

5G signal rock solid, can cell locked, can band locked. what else do you asking for?

Try Band locking to either Band 1, 3, 7 or 8, as per post below. .......

my signal excellent but get 2mbps now.. god...

RSSI: -69dBm is full bar
something wrong somewhere
1 bar -110 to -120

Um ultra 5g spotted at TASEK Sentra jb
