    What 5G router do you have? I’ve been looking for one, but couldn’t find anything that was even close to reasonable in terms of price.

      My Globe@Home router is just a generic 4G CPE they labelled as Streamwatch. But the 5G router/model I tested is called China Unicom 5G CPE VN007 which costs around 9K on almost every Shopee/Lazada store. I was also recommended a HUAWEI 5G CPE Pro 2 - Router it seems to be pricier and it’s harder to discern if the seller is legit. But yeah, most of them tend to be really expensive.

        No issues ba when installing a new router? Medyo na intimidate ako before when I wanted to add a good router for my PLDT kasi you need to make their generic routers a bridge to the actual modem you want to use. I was wondering if this is the case for Globe, or any other ISP here?
