Actually i was thinking of registering the Astro beyond but worry i have to change the cable, becos my cable is conseal, if have to change than a blt problem, moreover i dont know they will take down the dish for me becos my astro dish is on the rooftop n is 3 storey high. Any ideal they will do all that.
*
haha...just the same as i was worrying
i'm staying at shophouse...2rd floor
but take down dish no problem cuz side got gate can open and yes...it's at the side roof there
but i think they have the tool to get it done
cable is same concern as u...i really hope they didn't change
cuz it's wired neatly at the side on the ceiling above...so have to open up the cover
i heard if your cable is newer version thn no need change....thn u see your cable is new or old loh
if old thn need to change.....
if u didn't change now...later in future, u still have to change la...no difference
u can see our current smart card cannot detect those new channel already

Look like official lunching. But they not advertise yet in TV.

if they advertised on TV...the queue will be sooo long
astro have to extend the 10 days wait to cannot guareentee when
so they keep it low...those who knows thn can subscribe 1st
i dn't even see astro advertised astro byond on the newspaper in my state yet
now the queue already quite long...so they keep it low....when most current subsciption for b.yond is done
they can start advertised to attract most customer especially those in kampung

I can't see anybody who refuse to use the new dish. The talk was about the cable, not the dish.

In my situation, I want the dish to be upgraded, but they have to re-cable the whole building if the cable has to change too. This is very hard considering they're buried in the concrete walls and we have 23 floors.

There won't be more splits and joints if they don't change the cable, only one at the dish end, which has to be terminated properly anyway even if you use new cable.

PS: Since I moved to my new condo six months ago, I remember having problems with raining about 2 (two) times only. I don't know how or why, my Astro signal always strong even there's thunderstorm outside. thumbup.gif

The submarine advert was silly. They could have done more by explaining the advantage of Byond in terms of picture quality & features. What a waste.
*
that advert i think not finish la
have part 2 or 3
it's like just a preview
i think the advert means watch astro HD is like happening in front of u...which mean very realistic

Hi, been a lurker for years, my first post... Can someone confirm that the new cable between the dish and decoder is still RG-6 type of cable?

Still waiting for the installer here in Penang, it's been 4 days since the T&C briefing call.

they just installed b.yond at my house and all 4 hd channels available even thou i only subscribe the rm55 package (without movies and sports).. or.. is it for the promo period until april 2010 only?

anyway, there is a network port behind the box.. so i just plug it in from my router.. is there any use of it?
*
yes...now free until march 2010
RM20 start charged from april 2010
network port is for IPTV and VOD (video on demand)...but thats for the future

they are very smart to consider that, but how sure are they HSBB will be available everywhere? and how sure are they TMNUT will not throttle their connection to deliver such content to astro subscribers? TMNUT enjoys throttling whatever that is against their way lol
*
TM sure won't throttle becuz IPTV is local....not international
so it can go as fast as possible also no problem
how sure is they HSBB will be done in the next 24 month...this i really dn't know...FAQ says within 24 month
maybe it's KL part only...or they have discussed with TM and maxis and know it will be done
that's why u can see many TM ppl installing HSBB very fast...very less delay like screamyx

Just wodner if anyone has managed to convince the installer to try using the existing cable.

Actully I am facing problem now with my AstroMax at which I can watch channels perfectly ok but the recorded video at the same time is either heavily mosaic/stutter/stuck or no signal at all.. Just wonder if the signal level (75% signal bar), maybe bad cable, caused this problem or my recording tuner is broken already.. anyone experienced this before?
*
no need to convince
they will test the cable 1st...if it's good enough, they won't change as well as they want to save time
but if really cannot...they're forced to changed it...if not future have any prob, they'll be the one to be blamed
