    rain 5g too inconsistent, please cancel my subscribtion

    I've tried reaching out to rain for a while now and have since gotten no feedback other than the one from zendesk, the 5g service is just way too inconsistent, at times it's decent considering how the distance to the tower I'm connected to on certain days and times, on the other days it's just...

    I felt a tremor. Thunder is surly imminent. – An outsider’s inside view and review of RAIN and its future.

    Note: I'm not affiliated with, funded or supported, - by Rain. Just a crazed fan with an opinion Foreword What is the correlation between life in September, and the Tech Space? You see the sky darken, you see little flashes of light and before you know it the wind is raging and thunder knocks...

    Good day everyone, I have had my Rain service for about a week now. I am on the Premium package which boasts average speeds of 300mbps. When I do the Rain optimization test on their website, it tells me my download speed is 350mbps BUT when I do any other speed test online, my speed is always...

    Stop 5G Groups and Anti-5G Cults in South Africa

    Has anybody not been ticked off by the thousands of misinformed people on Facebook and such, who are threatening to rip up 5G towers, stop 5G and protest? I joined a group to find out just how delusional these people are, but it's a whole other level. Just need somebody else to suffer with me...

    Rain 5G router connection to a wifi router

    I recently received the 5G router from Rain. The speeds I am getting are pretty decent and I cant complain. The wifi coverage of the 5G router is however very poor when compared to my old ADSL wifi router which was a 4 year old D-Link router. I have tried contacting Rain for any assistance on...

    What does it take to get RAIN to attend to a request?

    After having signed up for the Black Friday special on Rain's 5G, it turned out that the service wasn't going to work for me, so I decided to return the router and cancel the subscription. It took a few tries (four) to contact the support team to get someone to actually phone me to arrange the...

I contacted Rain through the chat and they said they couldn't help or send a technician as the speeds...

    Slow Rain LTE, Is it Rain's business strategy for 5G?

    Over the past couple of weeks rain customers have been complaining about slow speeds or no connection at all even with full network strength. Remembering how Rain did not hesitate to basically "kill" Fixed LTE in favour of Rain Mobile. Is it possible that they are intentionally killing Rain...

    Rain 5G great, but it is the reason Rain LTE is now slow!

    It is great that Rain has launched 5G in certain areas but this might mean continued poor Rain LTE speeds going forward. This is due to their 5G network architecture which is built on top of their existing LTE network. “Technically, this is called a non-standalone (NSA) 5G network and allows...
