That copy clone of Huawei now lots of advertising as if it's 5G capable. 5G routers are not cheap. At min 700+ most are over 1k. Lazada/Shopee has too many that RM200 router.
Good 4G routers are Huawei 618/818 models. I have one of those unless recently Digi upgrade your area 4G you can't get high speed with it too if signal is bad and too many customers. I was getting under 20Mb until sometime mid last year when they finally upgraded my area 4G. Now if I get good ip I get 40-80Mb speed.
5G seems to hard to penetrate our houses/buildings. Likely need external antenna to get 5G signal. Maybe some 5G routers include those. My area has some 5G signal 300~400Mb speed outside and inside if I am very near my window 150Mb speed a meter away signal is gone.

QUOTE(BOTAK_WAI @ Mar 7 2023, 11:14 PM) for 4G, if your area have B28 band, just lock it. it might give u better speed than congested CA B1+B3+B7 Unfortunately just tested B28 band signal is Avg RSRP / Avg RSRQ / Poor SINR. I can get Excellent RSRP / Good/AVG RSRP / Avg/Poor SINR on B1 B3 B7 bands so just B28 gave me 1/3 speed compare to them. Edit typo This post has been edited by LumbaKuda: Mar 8 2023, 05:10 AM

QUOTE(BOTAK_WAI @ Mar 8 2023, 09:20 PM) i see. how's your speed when 3CA B1+B3+B7 vs 2CA B1+B3 / B1+B7 / B3+B7? sometimes when 2CA gives better latency than 3CA, but most of the time 3CA have higher speed. Right now 3 Band I am getting 46Mbps. B1+B3 31Mbps B3+B7 46Mbps. B1+B7 can't be locked it will jump to B3+B7. B1 alone has signal. Just B1 I am able get 31Mbps. Now peak hour my SINR is towards 0db~2db lol. When they first upgrade my area signal was a bit better now it's deteriorate a bit.

QUOTE(BOTAK_WAI @ Mar 8 2023, 11:27 PM) my SINR also same but with B28 alone i can get 50mbps, better than i combine B1+B3+B7. Issue I have is nowadays Digi getting congested again over here and some of the IPs if slow you reset you might better or worse speed. Wee hours in morning test sometimes I hit 60~90Mb speedtest and signal can improve till Excellent RSRP Good RSRQ Poor/Avg SINR. Atm not worth for me getting 5G router unless price drops a bit more as good ones seems pretty expensive.
