    And RAIN 5G premium back to 10Mbits ADSL speed again :-(

    It's terrible that you are unable to get any feedback at all. I have only had responses that make suggestions that I have already implemented, like "place your router outside" - that's already been done. So the feedback I'm getting doesn't really help yet.

    And RAIN 5G premium back to 10Mbits ADSL speed again :-(

    Mmmm.... I have no had any tech guys here yet but I am seeing the same pattern. 300+ for the first three weeks, then down to 150 in the morning and now around 50 in the morning going slower toward the evening. I am starting to think it's a scam!!! What stops them from giving you super duper...

    And RAIN 5G premium back to 10Mbits ADSL speed again :-(

    I am in Pretoria (Die Wilgers). Had an average of 250Mbps for 3 weeks consistently (the first 3 weeks after signing up) and then it dropped to about 30-50Mbps on average. I think it's nonsense!! And my question is, what is meant with "best-effort service" in their terms and conditions? Nowhere...

    RAIN Huawei 5G CPE Pro settings

    I've found the user manual and understand the way the antenna combinations work very well. However, I am not certain that signal reception is my problem because it receives strong signal all day. I think the problem is either interference or that it's bouncing between towers too often. I need to...

    I am running it through a Gigabit switch via CAT6 from the roof.

    RAIN Huawei 5G CPE Pro settings

    Oh yes I misunderstood you. Yeah, I can see the Rain towers around me on the optimiser on the website. There are many and from the position it is in right now it has a clear view of 3 of the towers and they are higher elevation than us too. If I get onto the roof at sunset I can see the red...

    RAIN Huawei 5G CPE Pro settings

    Yes. I see the Cell ID and it switches between 3 or 4. I can use the Cellmapper tool to calculate the eNB that the respective cells belong to.

    RAIN Huawei 5G CPE Pro settings

    I have also experienced that the CPE is very sensitive to placement. I have recently moved my router from gutter-level up onto the roof and now the speeds are slower. So something's odd. Either I am getting interference up there or the router is jumping between cells too much. I think locking...

    RAIN Huawei 5G CPE Pro settings

    Hi all. I may be, sort of, hi-jacking the thread here. I have had the Rain 5G CPE router outdoors on a 3-metre stand for about 3 weeks and consistently got speeds of 250-300Mbps down and 40Mbps up. Then I thought if I'd move it up on the roof at 6 meters up the signal should be better and I...
