Been a U98/UHome user since February, Yes 58 Flexi for 1 week. Equipment 5Gee Mediatek T750, Huawei CPE Pro 2 Balong 5000, Huawei P40 Pro Balong 5000. 200metres unobstructed to DNB mast, 250metres to U (B1,B3,B7,B8)/Yes (B38,B40) 4G mast

U Mobile
1. Frequently drops to 4G throughout the day to utilize their 4G network and carrier aggregation on all 4 bands B1,B3,B7,B8 around 100-150Mbps. Hardly noticeable, even the latency is around 25ms on U 4G compared to 12-19ms on DNB

2. Torrenting not allowed unless connected via VPN

3. Top speed tested is 1.4Gbps, but day to day use 400-600Mbps. During weekends and holidays, 300-400Mbps download.

Yes
1. Has not dropped to 4G at all in the past week. Yes 4G only works on either B38 or B40 for me. There is no B20 in my area and I have not seen aggregation on Yes 4G so far. 4G speeds around 30-60Mbps with 40-60ms latency.

2. Torrenting allowed. With good seeders, download is around 25MB/s (around 200+Mbps)

3. Top speed tested 1.2Gbps, day to day use 700-800Mbps. Same DNB mast, but on their end, traffic is not as heavy as U.

4. DOES NOT SUPPORT PLAYSTATION NETWORK. Can log in and download games, but refuse to connect to most multiplayer games. Even if connected, will have difficulty staying in the same party as your friends. Unable to upload videos or screenshots from PS5. The only workaround is lock band onto Yes 4G (Band 38, 40) and PSN will work.

5. Yes FT5G had the tendency to prefer DNB B28 for 4G signals. Yes 5G Flexi tends to connect only to their own B38, B40 for 4G.

6. Having used YES FT5G Prepaid in 2022 alongside my Unifi back then, I'm aware of all the sketchy things YTL likes to do. Unannounced throttling, sudden internet blackout, quietly changing terms and adding FUP etc. Get the RM58 and enjoy the unlimited FUP while you can, you never know when they will change their terms.

Speed of YES 4G(Single band) and YES 5G(B28+N78)

Yeacomm is Mediatek based not Snapdragon. It only has 1x2.5G port+1x1G port this one has 2X 2.5G Ethernet port.

There are very few SDX55 based model I'm aware in the market which have 2x2.5G Ethernet port except for the Zyxel.

Also it is among the most expensive 5G modem in the market. The Zyxel NR5101 for example is selling for US$1299 now.

This one looks almost identical to the Zyxel NR5307 with the number of LEDs and position of the WPS button but without WiFi7 probably customized by the OEM manufacturer directly.

talking about zyxel, i just saw this post in the yes 5g group about nr5103e unit, not sure if this is true or if someone is spreading false info

as stated in dnb faq, dnb doesnt certify nor approve 5g device, device certification is led by SIRIM - with guidance from the MCMC

True, they've already been banned by telcos for their mobile plans meant for phones.

Actually, the ban already imposed quite some time  since you cannot use prepaid/postpaid mobile plans such as Yes Power 35 and Telco U mobile plans on them.
Try placing a Yes prepaid/postpaid mobile plan SIM(not the broadband SIM) into these modems, they won't boot up or connect with no signal.
Only their data only broadband plans can be used because the telco allows buy your own(BYO) modem plans with no contracts.

Zyxel is very popular brand in Europe due to their anti-China policies. It is among the popular benchmark models used by Ericsson which is DNB's vendor.

The screenshot you posted is from non official Yes channel. Also there're 2 models out there one being the 3 Three model mostly already sold out everywhere and the restricted EE model which don't allow lockband function. Their IMEI cannot be changed and ISPs view them as safe models that cannot bypass mobile plans meant for phones. The EE model is useless because of its firmware limitations, and the official Zyxel branded ones expect to pay close to US$500 a new unit.

If you mentioned about blocking, those models with QWRT(China modded OpenWRT) out there will be the ones to be blocked first high on their lists. They allow illegal IMEI modifications and bypass of mobile plans without hotspot quotas.

Many of those modded brands out there claimed to be OpenWRT based are actually China modded QWRT based not the official channel. No one actually knows they have hidden backdoors in them and usually the tactics used by China modem suppliers is that they won't upgrade their QRT firmwares frequently for specific models to push newer models with newer versions of the firmware so you will have to keep buying from them.

detailed and well informed explanation from you as always man, u must be an expert in this field

yes the screenshot is from one of the unofficial yes 5g fb group posted by a random anonymous user which caught my attention

btw given tht ISP view Three & EE model as safe models as their imei cannot be changed, i wonder whether these models might still face the risk of being banned outright even if used with a broadband plan (if mcmc were to decide so), this is particularly concerning

considering these models has no SIRIM and seems to be out of spec as what JLA claims

QUOTE(JLA @ Feb 28 2024, 12:40 PM)
based on history. mcmc close one eye for imei mod modem
wifi interference  is a big NO NO
seem like Zyxel NR5103E wifi out-of-spec

there are another  case wifi 2.4G device interference with P1 2.3G spectrum. dont find the link
