No, their sim can work on phones (data only, no calling function)

It works on my spare phones, Galaxy S8+ and iPhone 7.
But for some reasons, I cannot enable Hotspot option on the iPhone (it says to ask carrier to enable setting). No issue for my Galaxy to enable Hotspot.

Signal feels kinda weak and slow. Maybe because my place (condo) is on the 27th floor, further away from the tower.
My usual Maxis and Digi lines are also slow up here.

Just order my 4G modem, hopefully it will be better.

if you check at their website, your place got unifi air coverage or not?
because tm staff tell me unifi air is for area which dont have unifi line/port.
if that area already got unifi line/port, unifi air would not support

My portable 4g modem (the traveling pocket kind) has arrived. So far, the speed at my condo (27th floor) is quite poor and weak, although on their website, I am inside the coverage.

Depending on where I place the portable modem, i get 1-2 bars (full is 4 bars) and speed is slower than I expected. Averaging around 5-7mbps.


Funny thing, when I go back to my family home (landed house) which is NOT in coverage (according to their website), I get full bars and average speed is around 18mbps.

I went ahead and order another Huawei modem (not portable) and see if their receiver can pick up better signal strength at my condo.

Thank you thank you. Do share your Huawei modem experience. I am thinking to buy 1 Huawei modem in future. But no budget now.

Yeah too confusing, best to try out with unifi mobile sim. But from dlink router we cannot know which band it connects. Check your model revision number, I found there's B, C1 and C3 revision for dwr-921. C3 will have all the bands I believe.
*




Unifi air running on band 5 (850Mhz)/40 (2300Mhz) or maybe 38 (2600Mhz) on any network types regardless, but also depending on your area/location; Most of the time unifi air connect to band5, sometimes switched to Band 40 at my area.

When choose a router, make sure the Wifi/Mobile Router is unlock if you plan to subscribe SIM only. I'm using Huawei e5885ls-93a WIFI 2Pro.

How to choose correct 4G Mobile router, check the spec of network type. If you not sure which mobile router to choose, select the spec contain all bands but it will cost double the price.

LTE FDD:B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B20/B19

LTE TDD:B38/B40/B41(2555-2655MHz)

UMTS:B1/B2/B4/B5/B6/B8/B19 ---> This is 3G, you can see only band 5 support 3G if no signal on 4G

GSM:B2/B3/B8/B5


If you want to know which BAND connect by Unifi at your area, test with any latest mobile phone, install "Network Cell info Lite" from google play. see attached.

Hi,

Any recommended router to use for Unifi Air if I don't want to sign the 2 year contract? As I see the price of 618s-65d is quite pricey.
