Guys.
Why not just buy a 5g phone then hotspot it to a wifi router?
Wouldn't it be cheaper?

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Aug 11 2023, 10:37 PM) Siram… Yea, if this sheet dont work, I'm gonna buy tp link x50 5g edi.You will get better performance on a newer ASUS router The AC68U USB performance is kinda poor. But… at the cost of buying a new ASUS router, you can get a proper 5G modem router. Might as well keep it |

QUOTE(BOTAK_WAI @ Aug 13 2023, 11:44 AM) 3 version is ok…don't get the EE version. Why EE version sheet?4g is vastly depends on the area congestion some area even with 3CA (1+3+7) also less than 20mbps, some area can hit more than 80mbps. in my area, i rather use single band b28, at least i can get 30-50mbps download speed. |

QUOTE(BOTAK_WAI @ Aug 13 2023, 05:02 PM) of course usb to ethernet will works better than usb tethering to router because usb tethering very depends on the router cpu performance, not just the usb port theoretical speed. Ya, my cable and the lan adapter is limited to 100mbps, u r korek.btw, your lan cable is cat 5e above and usb adapter is gigabit or not? why just fetch u 100mbps result? i suppose able to hit 300mbps. nope…5G cpe is still too expensive for me. i am still using zte mf286d 4g cpe. u want tplink x50 5g review can go blacktubi website see mah Simply make use of what i having right now only. Will buy proper cable and lan adapter. But not sure my rt68u wan port is how fast, later google. I tend to avoid reading non reputable sites for reviews. That blacktubi i just read, lots of text but missing many info. Like says qualcomm chip but no say which chip. Like review car say proton but no say which proton. Also these review site have many stuff to review, probably haven even test properly they already move on to other stuff. I trust end users who actually use the stuff day to day better. |
