Lebara and 5g

[V8covin]

Can't seem to get 5g even though I have a 5g phone, a 5g sim and live in an area with a strong 5g signal.
I've set the APN up with Lebara settings.
How are others fairing ?

What phone are you using.

With an iPhone you have to enable 5G in Mobile settings. Probably the same with an Android.

Samsung a34.....it's set for 5g/4g/3g/2g auto connect which is the default

I'm on Lebara and have no issues with 5G. Using an Android phone. I can't offer any useful advice other than to say it's probably not a Lebara issue.

If you have power saving mode enabled in the settings on samsung phones it will deactivate the 5g connection.

I used Lebara for a bit with a 5g router when working away from home at a location where the landline had rubbish speeds.

Worked quite well for 3 weeks of visits over a period of 6 months, then slowed right now to the point it was no better than the landline - I have now moved to Smarty and the performance hasn't dropped off, although the speeds during the day vary a lot.

Power saving is off.
I get 4g+........I will try to remember to check what signal I'm getting when I'm away from home incase there's a deadspot there,not that I use it at home anyway but it would be nice to know that it's working when I do need it seeing as I just bought a new phone especially because the Lebara sim is 5g

Update,5G is working elsewhere in the city,my house must be a dead spot
