Personally I haven't any issues with 5G around Shah Alam, KL, Cyberjaya.

Yeah, if you got 5G but can't load anything means you are at the edge of the 5G coverage. You can receive the signal but too far for your phone to transfer back to the tower serving you. Just like your WiFi router is 3 walls behind your phone. You may get slower speed to none at all. DNB's 5G NSA mostly can only serve 1.3KM, anything further just don't get 5G or snail speed.

5G good for modem wireless broadband mobile plan
no 5G signal use hyper parabolic antenna

I agree with you 100%. But what I don't agree is the negative crowd expect the positive crowd to ignore and brush positive experience aside and only focus on the bad experience. How is that a fair assessment?

Even cell densification is bad by looking at this crowd oppinion, when in reality even with 4G, the telco also do cell densification. What to expect when 5G is litteraly using higher band spectrum?

With DNB 5G, on Day 1 the consumer can get affordable internet plan that is ironically much cheaper than 4G internet plan that is also high speed with high FUP limits. Some rural area even get access to 5G while 4G only available to some telco only.

People used to hate to have 4G broadband yet now we can see people willingly subscribe to 5G home broadband because it's much cheaper with no contract rather than subscribing to fibre plan with fixed contract.


People act like if telco handle the 5G themselves, the internet plan will be cheaper yet people doesn't know that the investment from 4G to 5G is much more expensive than 3G to 4G.

During 4G era, Celcom and Digi merge, in 5G era, don't be surprised if only Maxis and Celcom exists and I doubt they are going to make a charity with their prices. Without DNB, we won't get aggressive pricing from Yes and Umobile and only have to accept what the big MNO set for the market.

Nasi sudah menjadi bubur … Hope UM can surpass expectation to be savior of 5G service …

It is a very high expectation as they are building 5G SA which needs more 5g sites.

Six 5G transmitter stations in Johor hit by floods

KULAI: A total of six 5G telecommunication transmission stations in Johor have been affected by the floods.

five of the affected stations were in the Johor Bahru district, while one was in Pontian.

"All these 5G transmitter stations were affected due to the disruption in electricity supply. However, it has not impacted 4G services.

Yes, DNB enabled n28 SA alongside with n78 SA for some time already since circa Oct 2024

Are they able to connect by the way which location?

Also I saw recent times in Klang Lama area 5G has been pretty bad near shop lot business area

Phone shows "emergency calls only" on Maxis Postpaid. First snapshot is Brickfields, second is Shah Alam.

I tried the same on my prepaid Digi SIM and Yes eSIM. It just shows No Service.

If can do let exact location of shah alam I will try 😅

Without further doxxing myself. Seksyen 7. 🤣

Haha ok I mostly travel Seksyen 26 19 side that's why

WTF not even have 4G in Seksyen 7?

Of course got ah. I band locked my phone and it's able to connect to n78 though it says emergency calls only.

Tried to force connect N78 band it's connected and showing as Maxis network but I'm a Digi user eNb from DNB network also signal strength also stronger maybe due to closer to tower
Near Sunway caltex station

Also managed to SA network at Shah Alam also near Kesas Puchong junction

This is normal, even with U Mobile 5G SA enabled plan, you can connect to N28 but they disable Data & Voice on N28, meaning that even you registered and attach to N28, you can't make calls / SMS or surf Internet because U Mobile disable them on N28. Only N78 work and I can say their SA experience is bad, very very very bad. Initially I thought this is caused by my device (Pixel), but end up my friend that recently upgraded his plan from 68 to 98 and using Honor Magic 7 Pro also getting same experience on SA as me, very very very bad, especially very inconsistent and unstable. U Mobile really need to fix their SA handover / connection together with DNB.
