man I wish I saw this thread before opted in for the router last week. Tried it once, really terrible signal, worst than a cheapo Huawei B315, so shelved if for now.

I see you dismantled it

do you think there's any where we can tap to attach external antenna to it?
wonder what those white/black cable dangling at the middle there, looks very much like antenna connectors
if we could just plug a connector up those 'ports'....

seen some video on youtube talking about it but not actually showing the internal mod wiring

new year / holiday season recently, honestly the service in my area has been extremely poor due to congestion.
it's getting worst recently, online games are completely unplayable with long freezes.
it's funny they setup branch outlet in an area that don't really have solid services.
how we can get ISP to build more pylons towers...? sigh...
too much users, not enough pylons towers.

at first during end of december it was still okay, "fine I just use other ISP (like unifi mobile) to play games for now"
then now mid January basically everyone become super laggy

GET OFF YOU TIKTOK LAH ANCLE AUNTY AIYAHHHHH~~ i want to send gmail also hard ah~~

at dead of night able to get 40mbps, that's already surprisingly good considering my location
and it just gradually get worse as people starts to wake up...



the router even blip to 5G mode for like 3 seconds which totally surprised me, as my location isn't in coverage.
The signal likely just too weak to be constant linked with 5G, despite the bar shown full.
there is no "5G only" mode in the MC888S router unfortunately to force it.

if only there way to hook antenna to the router there might be chance of running 5G...

I aware Huawei router have 3rd party software/app to force modes;
but I don't aware any for ZTE
