Hi,

I'm planning to get either YES wireless broadband flexi or Umobile U home 5g as they are contract free. However, I would need to buy my own 5G router which seems to be quite expensive. Can anyone recommend me a 5g router preferably from shopee?

Been looking at a few options:

1. ZTE MC801A - RM758
2. Huawei 5G CPE Pro - RM689
3. Zyxel 3 NR5103E - RM559-720 (Add on antenna?)

which one would you recommend? Don't feel like using a 5g phone as will be on 24/7 and for the household.

Thanks in advance

Can’t say exactly for any of these routers but the general consensus is Zyxel with 3 Brand

Try to skip Huawei cause Huawei uses their own Balong Chipset which aren’t usually great when compared

Do you think I should get the external antennas?

If your current location doesn’t have full bars of 5G reception, yes, or else you might risk it jump back and forward with 4G/5G
