Just caught on to um 68 + wifi router plan and when looking around at that free router. Seems like problematic.
Then i stumbled in here. What do you guys recommend on a a budget? Like can i get my own router that can blast through the condo walls and just get a 5g sim? (not only umobile) |

Its always yellow. And when i went into the modem, it seems to intermittent 5G band. Anyway i can lock the band or i have to find out yes using which band? Or i need better antennas to pull 5G.

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Dec 21 2024, 09:53 PM) For condo if you staying high floors, 5G is almost guaranteed to be weak. That's because the antenna used by telcos are usually pointing slightly downwards. Ah thanks for the insight. I guess id be looking for an outdoor antenna it is.You can use an antenna but you need to point it right and usually need to install it outdoor. And no matter what you do, just remember that 5G is still wireless and it can never be as stable and consistent as fiber.  Noted on the last point. For the most part i have tried it with phone prior. |
