RAIN Huawei 5G CPE Pro settings

two more weeks till fibre installation, then it is bye bye Rain, I cannot understand Rain, 370 mb/s before 5 am,5 am to 17H00 90-180 mb/s after 17H00 drops to 60mb/s then to 30mb/s before going up to 180 mb/s around 23H00.
Just two more weeks, battling Rain's fluctuating speeds, then I will be free, 200mb/s up and down, constant stable speed

Those speeds are then due to tower load.

Yes Only one tower that works, many towers around, but none of them work
i got 3 towers pci, none of them connects to on 5g. Rain is a big joke

When i put in pci it says no connection, it only connects to 4g at this moment,
I am looking forward to having fiber and none of this issues, Paying R999 for 5g but due to overload of towers, I get 4g speed,

Ok congratulations then
 
Anyone have a backup power supply for their outdoor cpe or could recommend one please?
 
I purchased a used RAIN 5G outdoor router (model no: N5368X) today.

I have tried using both a Vodacom and a MTN simcard in the router, but it seems the router is not connecting to neither the Vodacom nor MTN networks.

My intention was to use the router to connect to the Vodacom 4G/LTE network since there is no Vodacom 5G coverage in my area.

Do you guys think the router is perhaps network locked to RAIN, and can't be used on any other cellular network ?

Or do you think there are some settings i need to configure on the router that will allow me to connect to the Vodacom network ?

Any help will be appreciated.

AFAIK these are able to be locked to a specific network. Not sure how to unlock.

Maybe a firmware flash would do the trick? Not sure if there's deep network config required after.

Would like to try flashing a different firmware version, but I can't find a firmware file on the internet to download.

do not understand Rain's logic, problem must be on site, yet 18 out of 24 hours speed in excess of 120 mb/s up to 367 mb/s. come 17H00 speed drops to below 25 mb/s to go up again after 23H00 to over 180 mb/s.

and they say the problem is at my site?

fibre rolled out to the street, but nothing yet in complex, fibre providers waiting for lots of people to sign up, before rolling out, and our complex is mostly old people who will not go for fibre. so even though fibre is in area, it is not available in our physical area. so i am stuck for now with rain, and their lies
 
I am currently using RAIN 5G as a backup for a business while fibre is being installed. They are situated right next to the tower however the upload rarely breaks 2/3mbps - barely enough to keep their VOIP going. This is using the Oppo 5G router which I have tried to move around the building. I know this is the wrong thread, but do you guys have any tips for settings on this router?
 
Please guys, do not ever consider Rain 5 G, festest internet day time, but come peak hours 17H00 to 23H00 you are lucky if you get 40 mb/s. I am praying for other 5g isp's to get on market that does not use Rain infrastructure. Metrofiber unable to service me, as I am only person in complex interested in fiber
