The Malaysian 5g network is the same network irregardless which service provider you get it from, is that right ? Meaning if one can get 800 Mbps from one service provider, likely if you get from other provider, the speed will be more or less the same. Is that correct ?

I thought so but UM works better than YES in my case and for others too.
For me, the download speed for UM is about 20Mbps more than YES and higher upload speed.

Perhaps the difference comes from the juice of the routers, Yes probably have older and less powerful routers.

What speed do you get from umobile? I was with my phone in a mamak shope, can get 800 Mbps for download, more than the 600 Mbps that I get from my house.

I’m using them in the same Zyxel 5G router.

Around 520Mbps indoor for U Mobile. Good enough for a backup line because I have fiber and for me to travel to my hometown which has no fixed broadband subscription.

I don't mean the router at your end. The 5g network is shared, but fan out to the provider specific routers before heading to internet. So the juice on the routers of each provider makes a difference.

Oh you mean those at the base towers.

I think so
5G just a wireless connection from user device - 5G tower - nearest telco POP
5G part are the same
*local* speedtest server auto detect your pop region
internet connection depend of telco up down stream

click Network

Maybe there is such a thing called a tier based bundle or package, which one provider gets the amount it subscribes to ? In which case, then depending on the tier, each provider will perform very differently than the other.

It seems U Mobile 5G has issues with Apple server? I cannot update apps or it’s very slow when updating them. Once I switched to UniFi Fiber, the speed flies. Am I the only experiencing this issue?

Not only u mobile, using maxis / celcomdigi also slow

I see. Something is wrong then.

Edit: It seems ok now. I can update apps and it’s fast.

Edit 2: Only for certain apps. Some still slow.

How come TRX mall no 5G.... and some more YTL whole mall no signal

The reason why I will never port my main line into ytl

Ytl can use as backup line only

YTL likely no more invest on 4G , new mall open and no line at all, other CDMU full bar 4G signal

They did, but to lesser degree (only a handful of sites) and seems limited to Selangor and KL area from what I know

Yes and No

although the signal strength and the available from your terminal to tower (or even the service provider server) is similar, the end user experience is still different.
each service provider has different bandwidth from their server to outside network..

for example Unifi may be more oversea bandwidth.
your experience will be different finally by using different telco..

at least I am using Yes 5G and felt that it has big difference of browsing compared with Maxis 5G..
Use Yes 5G and have a team call, the screen sharing can go blur while I never experienced this using Maxis 5G or Unifi 4G before.

SA coming soon?

Which location brader?? And what is app name?
Maybe NR SA for 2nd entity lead by Telcos...

Metro Prima
Network Signal Guru requires Root
also its uses N78 so I assume it's DNB one

HTC 5G hub very cheap in China but without N28 so is N78 widely available?
