QUOTE(vkashin @ Mar 25 2025, 08:38 AM) ![]() End up getting tp link x50-5g instead of nokia fastmile 3, because reading through the thread some commenters mentioned nokia is unable to lock bands 😅 Plus with the lazada birthday sale discount the price is acceptable to me And also there's warranty and it being Msia set - more peace of mind that's why i always say, if x50-5g with 3 years official warranty, can lock band, featured with x62 modem, below rm600; why bother with grey market 5g modem routers. last time not much choices, x50-5g was sold at around rm1k and grey market modem router around rm700-rm1k. ![]() of course if u have certain needs that x50-5g doesn't have, then only consider other options. btw, nx200 can get at rm462 on last sales. ![]() This post has been edited by BOTAK_WAI: Mar 25 2025, 04:46 PM |

QUOTE(austinjklim @ Mar 30 2025, 04:34 PM) hi evening. digi yes.Just wanna ask, the data plan you mention can be used for the 5g Modem freely? I remember coming across like telco carriers blacklisting modems for their cheaper Sim Card Offering? Specifically, would you know that Umobile has this issue? Im based in Sabah, so currently i'm using their U Borneo 20 Plan for 2000gb. If you would know that it can be used with 5g Modem freely, i would then consider to get a 5g modem for my small office. Also what would you recommend for a very budget 5g modem? Possible in the Rm200-rm300 range. i basically use it for Tapo and light browsing. Thanks man cheers. uborneo i don't know, I'm not from borneo side. u can try and let us know. i don't know how good is borneo's 5G coverage. rm200-rm300? none. better top up a bit go for tplink nx200 or nokia fast mile 3. |

QUOTE(ryuken74 @ Mar 30 2025, 10:43 PM) good to hear u able to find out the problem.if u got read this thread before, then u will know many reflected it's not stable. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/5403079 QUOTE(austinjklim @ Mar 30 2025, 11:17 PM) Ahh so need modem that can be rooted so can spoof IMEI. i try look around something similar. not sure if u could bring the mc888s back to umobile center and claim it got problem and ask for huawei brovi h153-381 for replacement. that will be a better modem router.Thanks for the quick one. I'll try umobile Uborneo plan soon. I do have a ZTE MC888s from another umobile subscrition of mine. I'll try swapping out the sim to test, hopefully it would work and can would reducemy monthly cost. I just googled on the Nokia Fast Mile 3. It mentions about "unlocked". Im assuming it means that it can be freely used with any telco sim yes? yes, unlocked means not locked to certain telco. but nokia fastmile 3 doesn't have band lock function, not good for poor 5g signal reception area, might auto drop to 4g. |

QUOTE(xswatch @ Mar 31 2025, 12:06 AM) my Lil bro just exchanged the modem to the newer huawei h153 yesterday. 2 days ago he call umobile helpline then yesterday courier deliver the Huawei modem & they collect back the stupid mc888s from him at the same time. he just complain that the modem is unstable & they arranged for the exchange straight away. good to know that 👍🏻hope other telcos can give newer h155-380/h155-381 (difference between both i think is with and without n79) like altel and tele2 ![]() ![]() |

QUOTE(vkashin @ Mar 31 2025, 02:02 PM) day 3 after receiving my x50-5g nice speed.can consistently achieve >600Mbps currently on speedtest compared to 40-50Mbps on my VN007+ previously all in all, very happy with the purchase! also the built-in wifi coverage is much wider compared to the VN007+; initially thought i needed to get a mesh range extender but seems like using the x50-5g by itself is good enough ![]() vn007+ was those cheaper option last time, so really not much choices that time. just upgrade according to your budget and move on. ping a little bit high. i wonder it's due to umobile to speedtest server routing problem or the modem router hardware design problem. anyone can shed some light on latency among qualcomm vs mediatek vs huawei balong? austinjklim liked this post

QUOTE(alucard89 @ Apr 3 2025, 05:32 PM) Hi guys, after browsing this thread how about buy the cheapest 1 😂1) AW1000 2) olax g5018 3) nx200 In terms of hardware/speed/wifi coverage, are they all pretty much the same other than custom firmware support? Leaning to aw1000 since sellers already selling with openwrt preflashed but obviously I’m not too familiar which firmware’s more stable yet Also, for band locking, which band should I aim for at my area if available? Hi, do i need to change mac to any 5g phone or it’s plug and play with ft30 sim? price without coins discount ![]() |

ZTE got their 5G chipset
new ZTE G5TS with dual e-sim currently maybe locked with china own telcos. not sure if later they will release physical sim version or not, because pcb board and casing already got reserve space for physical sim, can check the video below: https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV11oZyYREmb/ UPDATE: zte will release physical sim version soon https://www.douyin.com/video/7489368933758225700 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This post has been edited by BOTAK_WAI: Apr 13 2025, 02:16 AM |

QUOTE(alucard89 @ Apr 4 2025, 06:07 PM) i don't think there is difference in spec, just different firmware.if u don't want to take risk (firmware might not stable) then olax maybe a better choice? so far all olax users here give positive review. |

H165-383
Probably the King of 5G CPE to-date. 5G 8X8 MIMO DL https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=909119227202 notable mention suncomm x75 https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1uYRiYbEVc/ btw, take note that it's recommended to use L shape TS9 connector if you plan to connect to external antenna. straight connector might cause too much stress to the TS9 port.

found cheap huawei H155-380 on taobao
under rm500 using sea shipping looks like UAE telco set from Du UAE Du set (looks like comes with generic box) https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=891887041912 ![]() ![]() i notice that 5G CPE sold on taobao generally are more expensive than our shopee. only those telco set without chinese language interface are cheaper.

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Mar 21 2025, 08:59 AM) Does it work well? found 1 antenna that can be purchased easily from mouser or taobao, and the manufacturer is Quectel, the 5G IoT module leader.My experience with China antenna many years ago is they pump out a ton of fake antenans Some will make it worst, some not doing anything at all, good ones are hard to find cause this thing is somewhat not legal to be sold to end user (grey area) It was designed for Quectel’s RM520x Series modules. Read datasheet to check which cable is for which frequency.

Not sure if this is the limitation of the device or the plan speed cap. Currently im using DECO X50 with digi prepaid plan. Tozed X100M Pro for sure not using mediatek or qualcomm 5g modem, can forget about it. |

QUOTE(PRSXFENG @ Apr 16 2025, 12:39 PM) FCC Teardown (at https://fccid.io/2A5LO-TOZEDZLTX100/Interna...Photos-7102381) according to the CD website, they still giving out TP-Link NX510v, but need to pay more 1-time fee rm99.Shows Unisoc platform so... not a great choice CelcomDigi used to give ZTE router right? why did they downgrade so hard? I guess to compete on price with UMobile and Yes? *Disclaimer, the link is for "ZLT X100 PRO, can't find X100 PRO on their website and can't find X100M PRO on FCC" I am making an assumption it's the same thing, just that this "M" variant doesn't have the TEL jack umobile now giving out Huawei Brovi H153-381 with no extra cost, so that will be an attractive selling point. for yes, i don't recommend at all. if want cheap better use digi prepaid + their one-time pass. |
