Full bar doesn't matter when priority so low

diff location diff speed, diff flooring diff speed, diff

u can spent $8 to do one month trial test...
1. use mobile to hotspot first
2. if speed ok, buy 4g router to test.

Alternatively....now the cheapest broadband is $24 per month... maybe can share the broadband subscription cost with ur nearby neighbour.

Hi, what broadband is this? Please share. Thanks!

Received sim three days after apply port in for my wife. Placed in new sim yesterday night at 1020 pm. She got ported over at 1130pm to my surprise! And received the $16, two months immediate to her account! I read many minimum 7 days after successful port in but hers is instantaneous. Was so happy. And yes full bar smooth network.
