    Rain 5G Router "Purchase"

    Am I losing my memory or something? I distinctly recall that when I signed up for 5G in October 2019, I was told to "buy" the 5G router for R1000 (once off, over and above the monthly price) and would be able to keep it even after cancelling. Well, I just cancelled and have been asked to give...

    Rain is down

    Hope you guys get sorted out as well. Being relatively new tech, I'm used to the service being a little unstable, but it should at least be unstable on the 5G network.

    Within a few minutes of posting this I was contacted by @rain_mobile and less than an hour later it's been fixed :thumbsup:

    Rain is down

    Same here, been down since Saturday. I do have 4G signal, but that's not what I'm paying for. Rain support was great while I was chatting to them, unfortunately the problem hasn't been fixed.

    Rain 5G users - Please do a MyBroadband speed test

    Don't know what Rain did this past week while I was away, but I went from 150-200 down and 4 up to this... Indoor unit, sitting on top of some stacked boxes next to a window.

    My excellent Rain 5G experience

    Thanks for the super in-depth reply, I suppose they can't go around giving $2k pieces of equipment to everyone. It's mainly my upload speed I want to improve, but it almost seems easier to just get a cheap fibre line going just for that.

    How'd you manage that if you don't mind me asking? When I mailed them asking about it they flat out said nope, try finding it elsewhere.

    5G issues.

    Anyone else's router randomly reset to factory defaults and just can't connect anymore? www.rain.co.za seems to be down for maintenance as well. Might be related

    5G issues.

    Ahh, that certainly does make sense. Thanks for the info, will probably end up returning it then. Cheers

    5G issues.

    That was my initial thought as well, but it would mean something dodgy is going with either Poynting or Takealot. Pic of the product code/SN on the antenna which matches the one in their tech specs:

    5G issues.

    Hey Did you ever sort out the antenna issues? I managed to get one of these https://poynting.tech/product/omni-600-02/ from Takealot but as soon as I plug it in, the router drops the 5G connection and stays on 4G till I unplug it. I tried playing around with the antenna settings on the router...
