Rain 5G. I am impressed!

was just kidding..

from another happy rain customer then?
It would seem something is going on along Lynwood Road with 5G by the Mobile operators? Maybe that is what we picked up momentarily? There is a VC mast about 400 m from us as the crow flies. I presume a 5G phone should be able to show something. Rain is not in the area for sure.

Which side of Lynwood are you Geoff? Am just off Atterbury in Garsfontein and have about 5 towers around me (varying distances) with my main tower opposite Times Square (Menlyn Maine)

A long way down Lynnwood Road, closer to The Grove. Definitely out of the current VC coverage area fro 5G.
So it was either a freak detection, or VC was/is busy extending 5G coverage and are not quite ready yet, and it was just luck that we detected %G while they were busy with some or other test.
 
Agree with OP. Using 5G for 2 months now and the speed is incredible.

I will note there is fibre throughout the area where the tower is located.
 
Is it possible to upgrade to the Premium package with the CPE Pro router? Or do you have to swap it for a CPE X?

(Rain speed test average around 250Mbps+ with the CPE Pro)
