I wouldn’t say I don’t experience downtimes either Airtel sometimes, but it’s not that common. A simple band lock fixes it, there are times you must have to combine bands for network to be stable, there are times you’ll just need to lock to a single band. This was my speed around 11:40am . I was downloading with torrent . Also I noticed that devices connected to your router sometimes prioritize themselves for speed which in turn affects other devices. But overall I’m enjoying this Airtel, and Starlink is the only thing that can replace it for me.

Betnomore:
You’re incorrect. I’ve done it over 10 times since inception of Airtel unlimited. Once you exceed your 1tb and allow the sub to expire. Any sub you do subsequently will bring the speed back to normal. Airtel is very deceptive that is why I didn’t do those 3 month sub which is cheaper than doing it monthly because I don’t know what will happen if I use the 1tb before one month. Will my data be throttled for the remainder of the 3 months? One has to be extremely careful when it comes to Airtel
there is a 3 months sub?

Right step in the right direction.

Art of war!!! Confuse the enemy and keep smashing them. The Israelis and the US thought it would be a walk over as usual. Now they are stuck in a Vietnam 2.0 kinda of quagmire.

If they (US/Israeli) stop the attack they lose face in the eyes of the world and their allies. If they continue with the fight, the more they are demystified by the Iranians. Russia and the Chinese wouldn't want this war to end anytime soon. Russia and China should try and keep them very busy and pinned down in the ME for as long as it takes since Iran is willing to be a battering ram to drain the US. Russia provides the intel to smash their assets in the ME and the Chinese provides the weaponry, that's division of labour.

Its not even up to a month, the US is squirreling around the globe begging their allies for weapons and to join the fight (Definition of paper tiger)
how in anyway have Iran demystified the us and Israel ?!

You can test this scenario since you have the device with you grin

Meanwhile, of course the UPS will charge any time it is plugged. What I noticed the G5F's UPS do is that it turns on immediately you plug it to grid, if it was turned off before plugging.

The other power banks probably won't charge if they are turned off because their switches are different.

I have just tried charging them. ZLT power bank won't charge if turned off. So to charge it, you have to turn it on. If you don't want to power the router while charging it, then you'd have to unplug the router.
that’s a really dumb design. But thanks for taking out time to test this.

I’m not really sure it charges without being plugged in to the router. I think it shows as charging but doesn’t add, although I’m not sure about this.

One final question. Please if I have the power pack that came with the ODU plugged into the router and the charger plugged in to power without turning on the power pack , does it charge the battery? Or the router must be turned on for the power pack to charge?

It's the positioning of the ODU that matters. The IDU positioning matters only in terms of wifi signal reception.

The ODU is the main device.

For ZTE, an app exists to guide the positioning.
I’ll say, lock bands first and compare if you used to get good reception

Locking cells on the ZTE requires one JavaScript code like that, to be run on your browser console. So it's not straightforward to do.

The band locking is not bad, it ensures the locked band, its cells, and frequencies are what you'd be using. As a matter of fact, sometimes I lock band 7 alone because it's the best band. But there are times when all the cells in band 7 are misbehaving. That is rare but that's why I left them unlocked.
I appreciate your explanation. I’m well versed in Java/programing languages but it’s better to just leave Airtel like that with their cells. I’m using the ZLT . This is how the CELL thing looks on it.

If you use ZTE, just leave the bands and cells alone. The router will select the best one at any point in time. I know the other routers do the same but ZTE is better at it (I have ZLT X17m too).

My experience may be different but I have locked bands and cells with varying results. The problem is that the cells and/or bands you lock on, will, eventually, reduce in signal strength and quality - sometimes to the point that they become unusable.

For instance, in my location, cell 491 on band 7 at 3256 frequency, was the best band sometime late 2025. That cell has been overtaken by 489 on 3256 at 3400. If I force the router to be locked on it, it's always very slow and sometimes unusable.

Recently, band 1 also has good cells and frequencies, especially cell 174 on 250.

Because band3 has very strong signal in my place but with virtually useless cells, I disabled it and left the rest alone for the G5F to choose the best and that has been fairly good in terms of performance.
oh. Thanks for the detailed response. I very much appreciate it.

I have never touched anything CELLS, only BANDS. Am I doing it right?
Phones › Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Obviouslyblunt: 5:12pm On Mar 06
Renewed my sub and it seems like the bands I have to lock changed. Previously it was band 1 and 7 that I lock to even down to last night. Renewed my sub this morning, and locking to band 7 does nothing. I now have to lock to band 1, 3 and 8.

Is this a normal experience?

I’m not complaining though, just curious.

go to firewalls and after click on filter rules. U will see . Blacklist or whitellist
The different btw whitelist and blacklist is A whitelist means only approved device are allowed, and everything else is blocked and A blacklist means everything is allowed except what is blocked.

Transfer money to the account na? The adding might be using a third party service. Just transfer money to the Smartcash account as you would an Opay account. The number you used to open it is the account, just like Opay and similar Payment Service Banks.

He can also just recharge his main Airtel number or the ODU number via the Smartcash app. He gets same 2250 cash back and have 25k in the line to renew subscription via USSD or the Airtel app.
when I go to add money to my smart cash account , it says coming soon. Is this an iPhone thing? What do I do?
