FAQs

Why am I not getting 5G signal?

If you’re not getting 5G signals despite being present in a city where 5G is rolled out, it may be possible that your telecom operator, such as Jio, Airtel or Vi, is yet to roll out 5G services in your area or locality. Try moving around to other areas where 5G is live. 

How to check if your area/ locality has 5G service?

If you are an Airtel user, download the Airtel Thanks app. The app has an option called ‘Check if your phone is 5G enabled’. Click on it, to know the availability of Airtel 5G services in your area.

Otherwise, Airtel and Jio users can download SpeedTest app by Ookla on their mobile phones. The app has a ‘Map’ feature that tells you where the 5G services are currently available.

Which cities have 5G services?

Airtel has rolled out its 5G Plus services in a handful of cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Siliguri, Nagpur and Varanasi. On the other hand, Jio True 5G has started rolling out in Delhi, Varanasi, Nagpur, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Chennai, and Siliguri.
