Hi, currently i am using maxis one prime with unlimited data for home broadband and mobile. I plan to have 2nd line at my parent line for mobile data since maxis speed at 50mbps compare to tm streamyx at 8 mbps only.

Any recommendation for best 4g LTE Modem router?

Or get any model with Carrier Aggregation feature.

huawei 618

I would suggest you buy another router to use at your place, and put maxis provided router+dongle at your parents place (change the sim card)

If you need lte backup at your place, just get a router with usb port and supports lte dongle + lte dongle itself

I suggest you check whether your unlimited plan allows hotspot/tethering.

Already check with maxis, this package allowed for tethering.

Tq bro for the recommendation. Will have a look on it

May i know what is the advantage of doing this?

Thanks for the recommendation. This is consider as high end product right?

probably the best among 4G routers available in the market.

Maxis provided router is not really stable, sooner or later you're gonna want to change it to a better one.

Agree

the best. the fastest 4g lte modem available right now for consumers. the 4x4 mu-mimo really makes a difference. u won't regret getting this modem. Ayam had 3 of b618. hnghhhh

Great!

Here is what I have found, I can place a lot of links, but they are already in one place done here - https://www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=...i10.rVhRNfFb1s0

What is 4x4 mu mimo? Sorry noob bout this

Reply. Tq u sir. Among shortlisted are huawei and tenda.

how much is your budget if 4G modem can get huawei if your internet speed is capped plan

get huawei b310 see which type u want. got fews type of this modem. 2x2mimo internal antenna cheap2 4G modem. no wifi 5ghz. so 2.4ghz wifi max speed around 50mbps only... even said modem is support up to 150mbps unless u run under LAN connection.

get b618-22d a bit risky at the modem due to sialcom(rm499) firmware update and telco lock set... lock set mean only can use for sialcom..not suit for others telco. cheap2 <RM1k 100% is sialcom set. wont be oversea set as b618 price still above 1k.

get b618-65d self sign up at tm selected outlet(rm565). modem is unlock can put all sim. best 4G+ modem in the market and it's cheap2 vs others 4g+ modem. 4x4mimo internal antenna signal strong. got 5ghz wifi...

i'm using b618-65 like it. coz using i150 & it have VoLTe too.... got pay expensive for use the unlimited call as well.

used b310, e5186-22a b618 best indoor signal antenna.

why not choose others brand like tp link, tenda come with 3 year warranty?
1. their dont have apps support like huawei hmanager i can see signal strength. ( i can refer and locate my modem in house easy find a good spot with statistic)
2. No Volte support
3. Most IMPORTANT, only huawei modem can lock specific band.. not force 4G. lock band. like digi have b3, b7 and b8. when network area is congested/ tower maintenance, then lock band is most important things for me. only huawei could do this.

Wow. Comprehensive analysis. Tq bro. Budget is constraint looking for rm300-rm500. No capped speed and data. Currently consider tp link and tenda too.

up to user...

for me modem cant lock band i wont buy ald.... ( alots of user know modem also wont buy if cant lock band)
try to explain more simple way about lock band feature example digi got b3,b7 n b8
lock band
1. b3
2. b7
3. b8
4. b3+b7 (if it's 4G+ modem)
in congested area, u have 4 option to do something about the connection speed and stability.

If cant lock band, like hp no rooted. the modem only run auto band, will connect the strongest signal, if all also strong then random pick by modem. hence also might facing auto keep switching winthin band randomly none stop too..haha..then line also flicking la

2nd huawei is more resell value as they can be xxx(censored) haha. for others sim pack like gx30, gx50, YES, n etc unlimited sim but hotspot limit(only tak throught pm) cause is illegal things.

huawei got fews modem
1. b310 many are using 4G modem, 2x2mimo (2.4ghz wifi only)
2. e5186-22a support main telco like d,m,c CA/4G+ (2.4 & 5ghz wifi)
3. b525 4G+ modem, 2x2mimo (2.4 & 5ghz wifi)#
4. b612 not sure support CA/4G+ telco or not, wrote is 4.5G modem. should be 2.4 & 5ghz wifi too, 4x4mimo pretty same like b618 if it's support 4G+

others model rarely being used.
