Some here saying their speeds at 50mbps? My Eight max only 40mbps.

Depending on location but rarely that fast.

Location depending. If you lucky get good speed.

It my area Sembawang Simba has improvement. Last time I get regular speed dl 30Mbps ul 5Mbps . Last week onwards it become dl 50Mbps ul 5Mbps. Also constant it 5G connections. Last time on off switch between 4G 5G signal .

I'm at Yishun, near Sembawang.
Last time, my SIM router only connects at 4G, then suddenly a few weeks, it gets 5G constantly. I was pleasantly surprised.
It has improved a lot. Also when I move around with another SImba SIM, I see more areas connected at 5G, than previously.

I'm at Yishun. I don't find Simba download speed bad.
Just tested, eight 4G (top) vs Simba 5G (bottom).
I find eight is symmetrical in upload/download, but Simba is asymmetrical.

That is a good speed already. no shuttering or lags while youtubing

Silliba, why cut off? Give 300 is useless, zero bar cannot use. rather you go to previously without repeated disconnections.

Total disconnect cannot call either. Nothing..

on/off flight mode should do the trick.

 

[speedsonic]

obviously above doesn't.
the engineer doing something as usual. it returned back only after posted.
after increasing the usage bundle for like last yr it became this. but not sure why.

I think if SIMBA flips my skirt, simba knows my amazing port out history with them lol...

I have never used vowifi. So, I don't bother.

I will report the effectiveness of that Picocell here after the installation on the 10th April.

Maybe can also ask your neighbours who are using SIMBA to feedback if their signal improve too

 

[Byfrost]

Okay.

My house has very bad SIMBA signal. Internet connection can be worked-around with home WIFI. However, calls can be bad as the cell signal is very low and at times, lost the SIMBA cell signal totally. It's frustrating when the calls quality is bad or totally got cut-off.

SIMBA Supports has suggested to install so called; a Picocell device which will be attached to my M1 BB to enhanced the strength of SIMBA cell signal at my house on the 10th April.

Let me see how it goes...

Goodbye in advance again I guess.


I give T+1 month or T+next cycle before bye bye again.

Ex-gf....I heart pain! Give her another chance with the power of Picocell!

 

[loganrunning]

Anyone roamed in china recently ? Is it all good ?

this year: SZ, GZ, ZH, Macau, Shantou, Ningbo, SH, Beijing.
generally acceptable. didn't test speed, but no problems using.

edit:
- no problems accessing any and all the usual apps i use, including google apps/whatsapp/telegram/tiktok/banking.
- no VPN needed, no VPN used.
- no problems using Alipay or Wechat pay over it.
- could also hotspot.
- no problems with the Simba voice app too (same functionality as when in SG)

Today, SIMBA supports asked me to sent them the speedtest results of my house for their backend team to follow-up.

So. I sent them 3 results, opened Balcony, my bed room and Living room.

I tell you, none of results are more than 5mpbs DL and with just 1 bar or the most 2 bars signal and at times, totally no signal and without 5G icon.

It's that bad at my house. So, you tell me. How to love Simbarella deep deep likes that... . It isn't that I'm a "Playboy"...

Change new device can use back the old eSIM QR code or not?

The best solution is to move house.
