Why not pay bit more getting X28 or Fastmile 3? since using legal Broadband SIM? both using better CPU!

I don’t use with the broadband plan 😬
I already have the U 68 with the router
I want another router for my other prepaid plan

I just got the CP502 and very dissapointed, the signal so bad. My cheapass huawei can get 5g 4bar and abour 100mbps
But the CP502 totally can't get 5G only able to get 4G no matter what setting I put

Telstra Arcadyan AWS1000 going for only RM528 on Lapsapda with free choice of QWRT or Sopek firmware offered by seller with invite link to a private group.

This customized OpenWRT firmware is very useful if you know what you're doing.

Wow so cheap too bad I bought CP502 and it's not as good as AW1000 I had tested both

but many users of x50 5g reported in several thread, if that area 5g kinda weak it will auto fall back to 4g even tho u already force it to 5g bands. maybe ur area 5g kinda strong.
*
Some firmware "lock band" logic is different
Even when u lock bank to b28 and n78 it is actually still a 4G 5G combination since it's NSA not SA
So in some case when u set to 5G only it try to go just n78 u won't get a signal
And if auto it got a chance to go 4g b28 or 5g b28+n78
It just depends on how the software is written

Hi guys, I have the Arcadyan AW1000 bought earlier this year running Goldenorb openwrt from 2023, speed test on 2.4ghz wifi and 5ghz wifi respectively yields only 30mbps and 200mbps.

when using Nokia Fastmile same position could go up to 400+ mbps.

any idea what could be the issue?
*
Get a new firmware, AW1000 is very good hardware but the software is varies

any firmware to recommend?
the sopek one seems to require additional payment
*
Yea I paid but it's still shitty as fuck, end up I returned the router cuz the seller is bullshit and the sopek firmware not really stable.

After that I got CP502

Any reason for your change from AW1000 to CP502?
I see both powered by x55 chipset.

I am using both the Deco x50 and NX510v now. Looking for a new modem with ability to do more custom configuration.
*
Both have pros and cons

The main reason is aw1000 very unstable back then even used the latest sopek firmware it keep randomly dropped connection until I reboot it will just no network at all
And also will random reboot itself
