Wasn't it only band 3 and band 7 for Maxis LTE?

maxshit some area very congested even carrier aggregation with band 1+3+7 also get 20mbps only.

b28 is anchor band for 5G nsa, so lock to b28 no need congest with other 4G users on band 1/3/7.

before this, lock to single band 28 only can get 30-50mbps or higher for 4G.

been using for a year suddenly last night no longer can already.

Since the DNB has right for the LTE Band 28, probably the band is now utilized for the 5G. Furthermore Maxis is now offering 5G service.

memang all the time b28 is used for 5G nsa together with n78

but now maxshit 4G no longer able to lock to b28, while other telco still can lock to b28.

But you mentioned that you cannot lock the 4G. As far as I know 5G is not backward compatible with 4G, not like WiFi

i don't know how to explain to you…for those who know will know.

Saya faham yang awak mahu guna Band 28 milik DNB pada rangkaian 4G Maxis

Tapi awak juga perlu tahu bahawa Maxis ada hak untuk tidak benarkan pengguna mereka untuk akses rangkaian 4G Band 28 (Anchor band),
memandangkan Band 28 tersebut bukannya milik Maxis, sebaliknya milik DNB.
Maxis hanya ada lesen untuk 4G Band 1,3,7,8 sahaja.

Kalau awak mahu guna sambungan internet Band 28, awak mestilah menggunakan sambungan 5G. Band 28 hanyalah anchor band sahaja.

Mungkin Maxis tidak seperti telco lain yang membenarkan pengguna mereka akses 4G Band 28 DNB tanpa perlu menggunakan sambungan 5G.

sila tengok post pertama, saya nak tanya ada orang yang pakai maxshit 4G dengan b28 adakah sama tak boleh lock lagi. itu je.

apa yang awak cakap tu i pun faham.

Chill...
When I disable every band except band28 on my S9+ (Hotlink), it showed Band:PGSM900 (usually it would show the band number) and my phone only gets 2G.

Still, I'm kinda surprised that they are allowed to use 4G on band 28.
*
ya…before this can locked to b28, now select b28 will be connected to 2G.

it's quite good experience for 4G user to use b28 because can get 30-50mbps speed constantly, while b1/3/7 very congested normally only get 20mbps and below.

Seems like MaxShit is forcing its customers to upgrade to 5G with higher fee.  When customers complain slow speed, the solution is to upgrade to 5G plan.
*
yea…other telco 4G still can locked to b28, maxshit je can't.
ppl rather shift to umobile rm68.
even digi i150 users also shift to umobile to save money.

You pure 4G subscriber? They block 4G users to attach band 28 due to Volte call drop issue when phone handover to band28.
If u 5G user, they cannot block this, so the volte call will drop if phone move from good b28 coverage.
but if u are 5g user profile then i duno d...

yea…using business postpaid.

but that's just an excuse for them to force user pay more for 5G.

because phone will normally automatically connected to b1/3/7/8 and not b28. for those who purposely lock to b28 with 4G/5G router won't care about phone call.

I may think B28 belongs to DNB.
If you didnt subscribe to 5G, Maxis needs to bear the cost to pay DNB for what you consume on B28.
That is why they disallow it.

Having say that if you subscribe 5G but lock to only use 4G but not with 5G, doesnt make sense.
*
yes. maxis disallow it while other telco still allow.

i am still using 4G phone, and some area only good coverage with B28, does that make sense now?

You need to pay for 5G pass to access it since need to pay extra to DNB for access rights.

No not all telco can access it. If you're on legacy plans with only 4G you cannot access it as well even for CelcomDiGi and Umobile.

I am still legacy plans for both telcos above with no 5G pass cannot access B28 as well.
