Wow so good.
I wanna test my area before getting a 4g router. As from their website, my area is not covered by Unifi air. However I can use Unifi mobile there with a quite good speed.

Unifi Air and Unifi Mobile is using the same coverage.

My advice, go with the B618-65d modem. The performance way better from the alternative modem above.

I also thought they use the same coverage. I would wish to give a test before buying the modem, however, too bad, hard to borrow it. sweat.gif

so if
- subscribe unifi air + use their router = 2 years contract
- subscribe unifi air + buy own router = no contract

is it?
*
buy own router = expensive for starter

coz deposit is rm100 + it's expensive for huawei b618s even used one

there are cheaper 4g modem router like tenda but specs are not as good as huawei one

mr600 looks good, feature packed. rm430 is cheap

however, tp-link i think can't manual/force lock band 38/40 and no manual/force carrier aggregration like huawei can.

please post your tests and experience with mr600 and unifi air soon. thumbsup.gif

Correct, you cannot lock band 38/40 using MR600. But I think it will prioritize whichever bands that provides LTE-A.
An interesting feature of the modem is that it connects to two bands at the same time, presumably for better reliability. In my case it's band 40,40.

(Please ignore the 0Mbps speeds, clearly a glitch happened there)
As far as speeds go this is what I got. Normally around 50-60Mbps, and can go to 80+Mbps off peak. Not too shabby for the price. I'm satisfied.

Huawei B618s-65d is still going be to much better than MR600, I've seen some people get over 100Mbps with that. But you'll have to cough up the money if you don't take the contract.

unable to figure out how to connect to 3g/H+ using Unifi Air

what band, apn to use? set auto but modem says signal excellent but cant connect

reason i want to use H+ is because to avoid congestion at night. 4g day speed is good > 20Mbps but night ~5Mbps

Huawei B618s-65d can buy outright? Where?
If cancel contract, how much extra to pay?

if using tplink mr600, how you know the router connected to band 40, band 38 or band 5? can check inside 192.168.1.1?

Small town, Gurun Kedah.
At home slow, 1-9mbps.
I went 2km from my home, near Unifi tower, can get 15mbps around.
