I have posted a reply to another reader's similar problem but I want to also post this as a separate new problem.
As follows:
The ZTE MF286R Router supplied with my Fixed Home LTE service taken out in November 2021 has not worked properly since day one.
After 18 days of complaining about the...
Hi all,
So I have been messing around with Rain's LTE for a bit now, and I am stuck with them on getting some basic help on which bands to use.
Thus far my experience has been that Band B3, seems to perform the best in terms of both upload and download speeds.
Band B38, has a much better...
Hi Guys,
After a long struggle, i finally managed to get my Telkom Uncapped LTE package.
Now to my knowledge, i should be correct.... I think Hahaha
If i take my sim card i received and I buy a new Wireless router that has LTE-A capabilities, Would i not get LTE-A Speeds?

Hi all,
I currently have a 10 + 10 GB SmartBroadband Wireless contract with Telkom for R200 p/m. I desperately need to upgrade it because I find myself having to buy an additional 10GB LTE bundle for R250 every month which makes my monthly bill R450. Telkom is currently having a double data...
For the first few weeks, I had a stable connection with very few drops. Now, from about 5pm to midnight I'm experiencing packet loss & disconnects every hour - not ideal if you're playing online games. As is, it's pretty unusable. Anyone experiencing the same problem?
Hi,
So i'm going to jump right into this (what might seem like a rant but more of a, checking if anyone else has experienced this).

Good Morning y'all!
I have a few question regarding Fixed LTE and also would like some advice if you don't mind.
I was on Telkom VDSL 20 for the last 3 years, suddenly this year something went horribly wrong with my line, so the techies came out, said the over-heading cable from my house to...
I'm moving from Cape Town To JHB next month and did my line relocation with Telkom in the beginning of May.
Today I get a phone call that the address I provided (Estate in Northriding, next to Northumberland Ave) has no ADSL infrastructure. Seems a bit ridiculous. But we are talking about...
For various reasons I've been slack and not taken up Telkom LTE-A R 799.00 24 month contract. As fibre is still not available in my town I'm looking at buying my own router and going for the sim only month to month option. As I have become more disillusioned with DSTV with every passing month I...
Has anyone used this router? Is there a better modem available that works with Cell C with LTE-Advanced?
I would prefer to buy a router by a known brand, than this generic Chinese brand.
This router takes forever to start up, last time I checked it took 5 minutes. This is unacceptable in...
