When selecting a 5G router, ensure it supports Simba or other SG telco 4G and 5G network bands. Typically, if the modem within the router supports these bands, it should detect the network. Additional considerations include:

• • Software capabilities:
  • • Configuring APN settings
    • Communicating with the mobile network.

Verify these requirements to improve chance for a seamless connectivity

Price too good to be true. Rarely see banded 5G router at this price and new store with zero review.

Use a mobile hotspot speed is faster link to a router which supports AP / repeater

unless you link it with a cable or else link wirelessly will suffer a 50% efficiency.

IMHO.
This setup will not charge the phone. My preliminary testing, the speed is not fantastic. Cannot reach the highest speed of my 5G.
