Hi guys, wanted to ask is it roaming is always high latency regardless of which telco? Im working in brunei, their local carrier and internet is very expensive. Im on digi roaming now but thinking switch to umobile hopefully it will be lower latency. But not sure also will it be better. Any ideas?

That’s how roaming works. It is a temporary or backup solution.

Your data and its traffic needs to be routed back to your home country’s network, so it’s like you’re connected to the slowest vpn

Also, if networks detect roaming for more than a few months, the local network can ban your phone from roaming

better take local data sim if it's more than 5 days

not really also, mine already 1 year roaming lol. Yeah like tat maybe need subscribe internet here. Cos lately the wifi very bad. It is like 100mbps 300gb quota need pay bnd45 per month lol, and this is fiber line 😂

i said sometimes.

my phone was blocked by local provider 4 months after roaming in uk

and that was just backup phone, barely used

In certain country, if you have VPN installed and not activated, your phone will still have problem.
