I think it had something to do with Microsoft, my detailed network thing on xbox always gives me a lower speed then speedtest, but last night that thing said I had 651Mbps download speed, which is definitely wrong.

Ok but it definitely download at that speed by my calculations until it settled. My 12 year old was bouncing off the walls. Briefly :)

Oh lucky you then! It took me 30 minutes to download Division 1 :cautious: :sneaky:
I still dont download at full speed from Microsoft store. I only get 250 on the xbox but anything else has like 300-350mbps

Still no news that I have heard of. I imagine they need to get competent techies into the area that know 5G

They have said it will, I think its just a case of when now. Also, Durbs seems to be a lot more fragmented compared to Joburg and Pretoria

Going to make a plan to get XBOX wired via spare port on the Q2. With WiFi have never really gotten more than 150Mbps on the XBOX, averages around the 100 mark even though doing 350 on the PC. Not happy with these Huawei Q2's. COD: MW was 100GB, I let it run over night but when I checked the ETA was around 2 hours which is still bloody amazing!

They probably start you on the indoor then move you to the outdoor if you have issues as that outdoor is so expensive

Mate of mine in Lonehill will definitely need an ODU - max 16mbps on the internal Huawei CPE. Hope they can sort him out asap

ODU does not guarantee "auto win" mind you. You are time at mercy of infrastructure. Was getting signal in the low 80's (350-400) a week ago. I'm now in the 95-105 (80-130) with no explanation from RAIN. I suspect tower down. Have put a lot of effort into my install as well. Finished it off this weekend.
