ah... thx for the advice. looks like i would be going that way as well.

I confirmed had problems with U38 share plan with NR5103e.
Cancelled the U38 plan, subscribed the UHome 5G RM68. It just worked straight away.

I guess the other way is to get a phone hotspot 5G or use a 5G router that can bypass this block.

I am using the same modem and 5G on UHome 5G 68 has worked well until this week where all of a sudden I cant find 5G network anymore.same on my U98 mobile phone sim.

Does anyone know if we are using 5G SA or NDA?

NR5G-NSA currently. B28 4G + n78 5G
NR5G-SA probably in the future still ongoing.

You can't find 5G network anymore then roam around your house and see where you get good signal.
I had to move my 5G router to another room after 1.5 months having it in a specific location. Or not get a external antenna as well maybe?

was using digi 5g phone line and usual gadget sim 4g on the zyxel nr5103e normally, then abt q-2 weeks ago ... both digi 5g phone line and gadget sim 4g cant find the digi network at all.

i swap u mobile home 5g with zyxel and it worked fine. Used the 2 digi in deco x50 5G and also iphone 14 PM and both digi line is fine.

i guess digi fully ban ban rhe zyxel nr5103e fully as well on 5g and 4g?

The reason is because this modem is highly popular now. Sold out on almost all the online stores.

All the Malaysian telcos have blocked this model's IMEI for all their mobile plans except whitelisting them for their Home 5G data-only plans.

They will also block the Deco X50-5G soon unless your modem can do IMEI spoofing.

You should not have any problem using it with U Mobile/Yes/CelcomDiGi 5G Home Broadband SIM-only plans.

All the other mobile plans including UNLIMITED hotpot ones meant for only to be used on 5G phones will result in no network.

Yes - i have a feeling the Deco X50-5G would be added to the black list soon also ...

Hopefully by that time - the home 5g broadband packages become even more competitive ...

blacklist or not depend on telcos
'no service' , 'invalid sim card' or connected but no internet :- pick one

YTLC just very happy you put unlimited plan sim card with modem. mod or not dosen't matter.

These modems without the ability to modify IMEIs are more favoring to telcos/ISPs because they're meant to be used as they are - data-only modems.

It satisfies their ruling of being data only and cannot be abused with cheap plans meant only for use in phones without hotspot quotas.

I've got a weird thing happening with my U Home 5G.

I use this sim card as a second sim on my S24 Ultra. I've used it ever since I got my phone which was last month. For the past 2 weeks, I've realised whenever it connects to 5G network I'll subsequently lose all mobile data. It won't even reconnect to 4G. This can only be rectified if I cycle airplane mode. After that same thing happens. As soon as I get a 5G signal, I lose all mobile data signal again.

Initially I thought this could be my phone problem as it was updated recently. But I've tried with another Umobile and YES sim card and there wasn't this problem at all. It held on to 5G for as long as I had the card in there.

I even went to the extent of getting the U Home 5G sim replaced. But the problem persisted. I even asked CS about it and they kept saying it's my phone problem. But I've tried other sims and this didn't happen to those cards.

Anyone has any clue what's going on/fixes?

UMobile blacklists all their mobile plans for this modem and whitelists the modem only for their Home 5G Broadband plans to avoid people cross using them in unwanted devices?

They don't want people to use cheap mobile plans meant for phones in modem and don't want people to use cheap unlimited home broadband SIMS in phones.

U Mobile requires mandatory APN key-in to work unlike the other operators. Have you manually specify UMobile APN for your second SIM slot and save its settings?

UMobile APN is my3g

I using this modem with Umobile broadband plan. Just weird that, the modem will frequently restart. Anyone face this issue?
I discovered that, when highest connection speed, the modem will auto restart.

Likely the problem with power supply. May be the power adapter you using for the modem not adequate. Please refer back to modem's user manual for exact power the modem need.

some seller took out the original APD brand power adapter and replace with a lousy 1.

for power adapter replacement, i recommend these :

I have 3 umobile postpaids for phone and a home5g in b618 modem.

Then when umobile intro this family plan I thought good la all consolidate in 1 account and I save abit on monthly fees. So I just did that. Cancelled home5g then bring home an extra sim for use in b618.

Kanasai no internet. Google abit and found this thread. Pkhkc hailat rupa2nya mobile plan cannot use in modem. So no choice nasi sudah jadi bubur. for now I kasi masuk into a china modded modem to spoof it as a mobile and use.

Got this modem back in 2020 MCO time so I can use my phone mobile data for work at home those days. Only shitty is that this modem punya LTE speed is only capable up to 20+Mbps when b618 can pull up to 80mbps with the same SIM card last time.

I subscribed to U Family 128 and plan to use one of the sim card in my car android player. It's connected to 4g but no Internet, then like others only found out that the mobile sim doesn't work on modem. Haih.

Anyone can confirm Zyxel nr5103e is blacklisted for uhome 5g plan as well? I reset the modem and now suddenly cannot detect sim card anymore
