Which 5G MODEM are guys using?

Too many 5G modems are too difficult to choose

Generally, the branded ones like TP-Link Deco X50 5G or NX510v are good choices

The cheap Zyxel imported UK EE/3 ones are cheap, but quality varies, some may have issues connecting to 5g

The no name Chinese specials, their performance may be lower

If 4g+ router lock band 28 means it can only go fastest at 4g+ speed right? Possible above 200mbps for 4g+?

Been seeing a lot of Nokia Fastmile modem popping out on Shopee as well recently. How good are these? I have decent 5G speeds inside my house (UMobile 38 with OnePlus Nord 3), getting around 400-600MBps on average. Should i save some more $$$ and get the Fastmile instead or just buy the Gteniq?

Which version is yours? I read somewhere that it's now on version 3 already. Got green 5G indicator lights? Can share more info on DL/UL speeds?

Wow kewl. Thanks for sharing, this is useful info indeed. But best 5G coverage, the indicator light should be green for 5G, right?

green is best signal

red (no signal) > orange > yellow > green
