Sim based Router recommendation for 5G cellular network

[_Dexter]

Hey so I am looking for router that supports sim with 5G cellular network. Currently I am using 300 Mbps Wireless N 4G LTE Router .
I haven't found any single available 5G Router in India.

@dexter22 yes, it was unlimited. My plan was yearly plan, so not sure about others. Till i recharged with 61, i never got welcome offer. Even now my plan is 3GB/day yearly plan (4199), still i had to recharge for 61, But this was not the case for another jio sim, automatically got welcome offer. Only had problem with ported sim.

If I don't get offer in few days, imma by new Jio SIM

Just get a new replacement sim, jio 5g will work within 2 hours after activation of new sim

As I said, soo random. Got welcome offer overnight.

So I received the Yeacomm NR610 earlier today. Grand Slam did a decent job I felt, customs clearance completed on 6th in Delhi and I had it in my hands in Bangalore on 8th morning.

Plugged in my new Jio 5G sim, and it worked out of the box, no configuration / apn etc were required to be manually entered. In router mode when I did the speedtest the first time, looks like the device crashed when it reached only 350 Mbps Switched to Bridge mode and seemed to work great. With the device inside the house and on my desk, I am consistently getting around 700 Mbps down / 60-80 Mbps Up. However in bridge mode 464XLAT doesn't seem to be working, might need some config changes, so I am able to access only IPv6 destinations.

@MrGordon

Those are some good numbers. When you get chance send me screenshot of network information page (signal strength, SINR etc).
Also try inserting two Jio 5G sim and aggregate internet from both SIM. You might get more than 1.4Gbps (700Mbps+700Mbps) ?

 

[MrGordon]

Sure. It doesn’t support dual sim active at the same time. You can only choose one at a time, it’s more like a backup sim. If sim 1 has no signal you can set it to use sim 2.

Does the ZTE device support dual sim active at same time?

Also, since Jio 5G is IPv6 only, need to see how I can have multiple clients. I don’t think Jio delegates an IPv6 prefix, so how does each client get a unique IPv6 address?

@MrGordon does Yeacomm NR610 use Snapdragon X55 modem?

Edit: Never mind, found the answer here

@MrGordon - Great to see experiences from fellow users adopting 5G CPEs, I have 2 Huawei 5G and both do not seem to support 464XLAT, so my UDM Pro doesn’t get a IP.
I would await further detailed reviews from you & @dexter22 if you are able to put a Router behind the 5G CPE (Jio only)

Apparently Windows doesn't support CLAT for non WWAN interfaces, so when in bridge mode and directly connected, I cannot access IPv4 endpoints over IP, so can't ping say 1.1.1.1. However, now I switched to a DNS64 resolver, and I can access IPv4 only websites just fine. Note that this is when in bridge mode, if I use router mode, the CPE device handles all this automatically.

I'll try on a Mac device if it supports CLAT out of the box for LAN interfaces, from what I read, it does support.

Now the question that remains is, how to put the 5G CPE behind a router and have multiple clients.
