personally tested unifi air will full signal connected to band 5. 15-20mbps is max speed can get. rarely get above 30mbps. b615 huawei

band 5 unifi air is extremely heavenly congested. nothing much can do if want to improve speeds as the infra is overlimit

I am grateful for that speed lol. My room can get 4 bar signal band 5. Play CS Go online no hiccups. Haha. Guess I should save money from spending on lpda then.

I just signed Unifi Air contract free for parents in a kampung only with Streamyx. This kampung only one Jalan can support up to 8mbps, my house is lucky happened to be in that jalan. But, one thing I consider is the upload speed is too slow.
So I took a risk to apply Unifi Air. I have been using Unifi mobile for 4 years, and I know that it is running band 5 for 4G in my kampung. I don't care that much, bought tp link mr6400 to try on it. It did impress me, I got max 19 to 20mbps download speed max 9.8mbps for upload.
FYI, my kampung is at least 15km away from their official Unifi Air coverage. So far I am quite satisfied. YouTube 1080, TV box no issue at all.

Adeh, any other suggestions? Change to Digi broadband? Since the 4g signal is good as well
