PJ initially was targeted in Q2 rite?
Q3 is postponed plan and i hope it wont become Q4 at the end

I am also on VIP10 having similar problem. Max dl speed I ever register is 8 Mbps. The upload is worst. It is usually 50%. All these results were obtained from TM's own speedtest.

Maybe I should find these local servers and test my VIP10 speed like you suggested.

I will keep monitoring and testing. After all, we have until June to gauge out Unifi's performance.

Sentul in Q4 lol...........at the moment use 4mbps

You don't have to find local servers to gauge your maximum speed, just use a well seeded torrent (preferably from a private tracker). Just look at my own speedtests on VIP20, I've highlighted actual speed readings from NetMeter which has a scale to it :

a) Speedtest.net KL server


b) Speedtest from TMnet


c) Speedtest from private local server (using SFTP protocol)


d) Speedtest from torrents


11mbps/6mbps from speedtest.net, 2.8mbps/11.9mbps from TM's speedtest on VIP20? Are you joking

Look at the TM speedtest, it's not even downloading or uploading anything because the Unifi speed far exceeds the size of their test file. The speedtest from TM is totally bogus.

Check out the SFTP transfer, single threaded its performance spikes between 12-20mbps.. this is with full SSH encryption overhead (which takes a heavier toll on the server CPU the faster it goes).

The best test here to measure your total line capacity is by using uTorrent. I can see that it's giving me 20mbps *exact* and the speed is stable. I get 2.3MB/s on every single torrent I pull from private trackers. 2.3-2.4MB/s is the highest speed the uTorrent client will report on VIP20. This is because about 100KB/s+ will be used by connection overhead. NetMeter will report 2.50MB/s while uTorrent will report 2.3-2.4MB/s.

Torrents give you multithreaded, multisource transfers and will completely max out your line. Speedtest, speedometers and single threaded transfers will be limited by so many factors such as the server you're downloading from and the routing between you and that server. If you looked at those first 2-3 results on a VIP20 package you'd be pissed off thinking TM isn't giving you even 80% of your subscription speed when in actuality you're getting 100% of the speed you're paying for. So stop using speedtest.net and the TMnet speedometer to test our your lines. They do not reflect the capacity of your line at all.

Unifi (FTTH) is not like Streamyx at all. There's is no heavy data loss caused by ATM cell encapsulation. The line is not affected by the physical medium being used. With ADSL, you use oxidized copper and your SNR margin and attenuation readings get screwed up -- your speed drops a lot. When it rains and the telephone poles get wet, it doesn't cause your line capacity to decrease either (unlike Streamyx). The moment the Fiberhome modem is turned on, it already has a digital connection with IP addressing to TMnet's servers. It even pulls the boot image from an FTP server.

Try downloading from Microsoft's servers. Confirm full speed. (for me at least).

i wonder will there be any student packages for this unifi~

So in other words, for VIP10 on uTorrent i should get an average 1mb/s dl right? half from VIP20. the highest i reached is 1mb/s so that should be ok?




anyway cannavaro, what download client is that?

Internet Download Manager.

Laying Fibre Optic cable PJ sec.11 and 12.

Tomorrow is D-Day.

just got mine installed vdsl , 5m package so far so good

20/8 = 2.5MB/s (2.3MB/s max in torrent)

10/8 = 1.25MB/s (maybe 1.1-1.15MB/s max in torrents)

Get Netmeter while you run the torrent, check the peak MB/s.. should be near 1.25MB/s when your torrents are at max speed

Yup i got around 1.25MB/s peak on NetMeter.

If there is like 500,000 people using Unifi will the perfomance decrease?

Yes it for sure will.

But but.. Why?
D:

1 more will the speed decrease if we download 2 files at the same time?

Hey man thanks. I'm using my own router with UniFi now. Some details about my setup:

UniFi package: VIP5 HOME
Router = Dlink DIR-600 H/W Ver. B1
DD-WRT = v24-sp2 (03/24/10) std - build 14144

The only changes I made was that instead of choosing vlan2, I chose br0 as vlan interface and assign WAN port to br0.500. I've tried assigning to vlan2.500 but it doesn't work.



The other thing I've tried is using a box as a gateway/router. I've a spare box lying around, installed FreeBSD on it. This works too. If you guys are wondering how to use FreeBSD instead of the DIR-615 supplied by TM to act as your gateway/router, here's my setup:-

Assuming:


kldload if_vlan
ifconfig fxp0 up
ifconfig vlan0 create vlandev fxp0 vlan 500

/etc/ppp/ppp.conf:



/etc/ppp/ppp.linkup:


/etc/ppp/ppp.linkdown:


Then just 'ppp -ddial hsbb' and you are set. Cheers :)

when only they allow kepong area to have unifi ...i really can't wait ..lol

Using BSD/Linux as a gateway is definitely possible and will give you way more control than dd-wrt Have you had any luck getting the IPTV port bridged onto a separate VLAN though? That's the only issue I'm having at the moment. The VLAN page for ports seems to be hidden @ http://router.ip.goes.here/Vlan.asp however the settings do not have any effect on the port assignments.. neither does changing the nvram variables.

DIR-600 & 615 seem to use the same version of the dd-wrt firmware which lacks this feature..

try downlaod such as rapidshare anything else direct download , i bet you can get full speed, torrent such a waste and slow
