it's not the modem, it's the chipset inside
any phone or router that uses qualcomm chip will always be more superior in pulling 5G signal and speed

Damn..I was tricked on getting this modem. I saw it uses Qualcomm chip. However it was not for the 5G.

5G chipset = Unisoc
Ethernet chipset = Qualcomm

Damn...

for me - i only realised the DC issue after the firmware update.

please let us know if 12V x 2.5A solves the problem in the long run?

then for sure it is firmware issue. swapping power supply did not solve.

All users running with SQM router now. Setting up RRD to monitor internet connection and it will register if the modem reboot. I'll leave it for few days.

I ran out ideas already. SQM did not help. Modem still reboot. However I did try staying on 4G-Only mode. No reboot whatsoever till now. Can't say I'm happy. Speed is less than 100mbps, average 40mbps.

Paying RM72 a month for speed @40mbps, not worth it.

Time to place a report to Umo CS.

If there's no permanent solution from CS. I might need to put my Internet on load balancing. Secondary Internet kick in while the Main Internet rebooting.

Done report. They will send a replacement. Choosing Kaon modem this time. Never heard of this Brand before. Not much info available as well. As long as it works and give me reasonable speed, I'm happy.

Eh? why they need to contact back. mine was immediate. they made the report and arrange for replacement. i should get it within 5 days. they will courier over the new modem and swap with mine. i strictly requested for kaon. they put a remark but advice me if still have stock. else it would be zte again.

i don't want zte modem. worried same thing will happen. furthermore, zte modem produces lots of heat. without having a fan, the dissipation aluminum plate on the chipsets too hot to touch.

Does the above consider internet down or the modem auto restart due to faulty firmware/hw

Man never knew the model supplied by uMobile for their 5G plans would be such problematic modem. The one unifi providing for their customers using a legit 5G chipset from qualcomm. Never encounter any issues in terms of overheating with the model so far. At least they dont supply rubbish router like what they are doing for fiber users.
