There sometimes seems to be latency on FNB's 5G network in Bloubergstrand. Having a backup connection can be useful, especially if FTTH fiber is only available from a single provider.

If fiber is unstable and 5G is limited, the most reliable solution is often a Home LTE plan like Verizon LTE Home Internet or a third-party provider like Unlimitedville, which use 4G LTE for stable speed with large or unlimited volumes.

If Vodacom is dragging on, it is better to look for an independent solution. A good 4G repeater with directional antenna can do the trick, like the Poynting or MikroTik models. Otherwise, Starlink becomes a viable option in rural areas.

The Huawei B818 could be a good upgrade, with better carrier aggregation and better speeds. Otherwise, look on the side of the ZTE MC801A, it is well rated for 4G. For about 1k R, it may be tight, but maybe on occasion?
