A bit on the pricey side. What about Zyxel NR5103e?
I understand that the speed can only reach about 500mbps. But how about the stability? Consistent 500mbps is good enough for my parents.

no official warranty…user interface not as easy like tplink…tplink got app…worth to top up the price difference (for the extra official warranty period already worth it).

unless if u say u can get THREE version of NR5103E at rm500, then the price is justified.

U pro sia
Dunno like that also can check

Decent modem by Yes. Just that come with 1 year warranty, if two years warranty will be better.

Money is money
I dont think your parent need 500mbps, do correct me with their usage if i am wrong to say so
Thus, getting three branded nr5103e is suffices
And the price is ard 700 in shopee after discount

Ping very high, I play genshin also same.
5g is fast but ping is so high.

use the vpn i shared last time also same?

What is ur ping when playing genshin? Maxis fibre around 89ms, Asia server. If phone 5G are 101ms.

Mobile network ping will always high
But, 5g promise improvement over ping, but for SA likely
Gaming depends on upload efficiency, not download
So ping is upload related instead of download

I learn something new....always thought it depends on download speed. So it's the 5G mobile data upload speed is slow and network issue compare to home fibre.

Still, compare 5g nsa now and 4g+ its already 50% improvement at least.
To test, i decided today to play multiple dota in my office which is using zte 888+my tp link mesh
Over three hours only spike once, otherwise all perfect.
Having at least 15 devices connected to my network also
So, i believe for gaming its good
I tested CSgo on zyxel nr5106e couple weeks ago also, was good

Non-peak hours 4G LTE average speeds of 15-20Mbps likely means your 4G LTE modem-router does not support Carrier Aggregation or is not Cat.6 or higher, which can get 100+Mbps during non-peak hours. U Mobile 4G cell towers transceive on frequency Carriers or Bands 1, 3, 7 and 8.

Maybe you should try these 4G LTE Cat.6 modem-routers, .........

If your phone supports CA or is Cat.6 or higher, maybe you can use it to test the 4G LTE speeds on your U Home 5G plan.

Using u mobile home plan? How is the connection stability?

Bos kasi review skit on this router

Thinking of this one also or the zte ones

kan our moderator dah rebiu

https://www.blacktubi.com/review/deco-x50-5g/

zte official very overpriced,
non-official you don't know what will you get, you might get global set, or u might get china telco set, or most probably europe telco set.

NX510V any good?

x50-5g is using tplink own deco mesh

nx510v is using easymesh


chipset wise, no review or teardown of nx510v so don't know what's the 5g chipset used. but since it mentioned support carrier aggregate so i think it must be newer than x55 chipset so probably using same x62.

the spec looks like customized for telco set but maybe no telco wants it then tplink just sell as consumer product.

3 years warranty.

Been using and testing Deco X50 5G with UHome sim at my place. Was testing to replace my Time Fibre before going all in with U.
Very happy and satisfied with overall usage.
Constantly getting speeds above 350-400mb compared to the 100 from Time.
Contemplating moving the place or getting external antennas to improve reception.

Oh didn't know that lol

For ZTE maybe get the euro set mc810A from sing4g la kot. Previously bought in 2020, huawei b818 euro set from them and runs great till today

How is the wifi range in your house? Like huawei b818, the wifi range gila limited
