2. What's the difference between CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi and using my CelcomDigi postpaid or prepaid data plan to hotspot at home?

CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi provides a stable, high-speed connection with unlimited data, ideal for multiple devices at home. It uses a dedicated router, ensuring better performance for streaming, gaming, and work.

In contrast, a postpaid or prepaid hotspot relies on your mobile data, which may lead to slower speeds, interruptions, and battery drain. For a reliable home internet solution, CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi is the better choice.

3. Who can sign up for this plan?

CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plans are open to both Malaysians and non-Malaysians aged 18 years and above.

4. How do I subscribe to CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plans?
You can subscribe to CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plans at the nearest CelcomDigi store.

5. What if my area has weak or intermittent 5G coverage?

No worries! If your 5G signal drops, the router will automatically switch to 4G, ensuring a seamless connection.

4G speeds (20Mbps to 100Mbps) are still fast enough for smooth HD/4K streaming, responsive online gaming (30-50ms latency), and reliable video calls or remote work. Even with weak 5G coverage, you’ll still have a stable and capable internet experience.

6. How do I check if my area has 5G?

You can check the 5G coverage map here.

All CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plans come with a router and a 24-month contract.

8. Am I allowed to change my CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plan?

9. Can I make calls or send SMS with this plan?
 No, this plan is for WiFi only. It does not support calls or SMS.

10. Can I use CelcomDigi Home WiFi outside Malaysia?

11. How do I set up the router?

Step 1: Find the spot in your home with the strongest 5G signal (near a window is best) and a plug point

Step 2: Plug in the router and turn it on

If you experience issues with your router within the warranty period, you can visit any of our CelcomDigi stores to get a replacement. 

However, please note that the warranty does not cover physical damage, water damage, lightning strikes, or negligence. If your router is damaged due to these reasons, we can offer you a replacement at the regular retail price.

15. What devices can I connect to the router?
You can connect any WiFi capable device in your home to the router such as laptops, phones, smart TVs, gaming consoles, and even smart home gadgets.

16. What is the difference between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi?
The 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi has a longer range but is slower, while the 5 GHz Wi-Fi is faster but has a shorter range. If you need better coverage, connect to 2.4 GHz. If you want faster speeds and less interference, connect to 5 GHz.

17. Can I keep the router after my contract ends?

Yes, once your contract ends, the router is yours to keep but it may only be used with the CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plans.

18. How do I subscribe to my free 24-month VIU Premium subscription?
Your Viu Premium subscription is automatically activated upon successful sign up of the CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plan. For first time login, launch the Viu app or go to the Viu website and enter your CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi number. You may refer to more details here.

19. What if I want to cancel my plan?
To cancel your CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi plan, visit us in-store. Please note that if you cancel your plan before your 24-month contract is up, you’ll need to pay: 

• Monthly Commitment value x the number of remaining months, or
• A minimum of RM500, whichever is higher

20. What is the difference between CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi and CelcomDigi Fibre?

The main difference is how they connect to the internet:

• 5G Home WiFi uses a wireless 5G signal, so it’s easy to set up — just plug in the router and you’re online. However, since it relies on mobile networks, speeds and stability can vary depending on your area and signal strength.
• Fibre uses dedicated fibre optic cables, providing a more stable and consistent connection with faster speeds, lower latency, and no interruptions due to network congestion. If you’re streaming in 4K, gaming, or working from home, Fibre is the better choice for a seamless experience.

21. I have signed up for the CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi 99 (Essential) plan but now I would like to upgrade to CelcomDigi 5G Home WiFi 149 (Premium) plan. Can I do this?

Yes, you are allowed to upgrade your plan to unlock the unlimited speed. However, you will not receive a new router while your current router is still within contract duration.
