Reliance Jio AirFiber Plans Announced

Also the ping isn't dependant to congestion (cuz there is none on 5G) or LOS to tower it depends on how well core network is and network configuration. We had 12ms pings on Airtel LTE in 2021 and before but now with Airtel 5G we are getting 19-25ms in Chennai

Well I guess then real customers speedtest will tell true story to see if installation guy is faking the speedtest in the video posted on youtube just to make people believe that airfiber is similar to jio fiber

@Rickysin You can see the latency though. It was 40ms.

 

[Rickysin]

40ms is too high for 5g

 

[Skye]

Yeah, must be for the regions where it is launched right now.

My guess is that pings would be slightly better than regular mobile network. It won't be as good as or even close to wired. AirFiber is not aimed at power users, the bandwidth and ping would be just enough to keep their bundled STB running for streaming, also basic usage like WhatsApp,IG or facebook would work fine. Infact it would be enough for most of the users as these are the most common use cases. I don't know how they are promising uplink speeds upto 1 Gbps and marketing this as fiber replacement
