the cell towers are not designed to support such volumes, which is not typical. that's why sometimes they will put extra temp cell towers to boost the capacity. haha

during the Weeknd concert last Friday, outside national stadium, connection was very bad. At most can send text. But once inside stadium, I see they have a lot of indoor antennas, network speed is good

Where do you get the info about the users supported for each base station?

I think the rooftop Base Stations at the HDB rooftop can support many more users.

Not so sure about the mini Base Station you mentioned, do you mean something like those inside the lift?

As for Primary MDF Room or Secondary MDF Room (eg: for high floor HDB buildings), I think they do not have RF equipment inside, mainly for Fibre Broadband, or the transport network for the 5G/4G mobile network.

That is weirdly specific info.

While you're at it, anyone used CDC vouchers to pay bills?

Most likely Ecrisson.

SingTel 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G seem to mainly use Ecrisson. M1 and Starhub seem to like Nokia.

Was looking at Zym latest promotion now, no more permanent 5G+ for non Singtel port ins? Although the 3 months free would more than offset the $1/mth added charge.

My cousin was pointing out the same. Looks like there's no more, so the $11 plan is the next best.

Noticed the same for CMLink and Vivifi as well.

SingTel hi! Senior Plan at S$7 per month should be cheaper in the long run.

You can also consider Gomo S$6 Senior plan.

Stlll on the Legacy Roam Saver $7.77 plan. Previously they kept giving me promo email to upgrade to 5G+ for the $1 I kept resisted I knew there would be a day it comes free.
