Unlikely to happen, people would bypass the cap by re-routing traffic through local datacenter servers. I'm sure they could implement unmetered traffic within the Unifi network alone though.

Heard from TM sales person at the curve cap is only international traffic not local. Local is unlimited
Pass cap speed will become 10% u can buy more bandwidth is u wish

Now this a total turnoff. At 10% it would be better off if we get a 4mb line. It doesn't make a good sense at all.

Cap not implemented yet, but they might change the cap since people complain. but 60 GB is really plenty for most people that 2GB a day plenty of video to watch. One thing good is that upload and download speed is same unlike streamyx its 512kb up, also ping times very very low look at some ping test its around2-10 ms which good for gaming.

@orenzai

90gb / 30 / 5 = each person can only download 600mb data / day
or it will be the same if you're on 1mb streamyx.

Do you like it or not?

What if you got a 24/7 BT housemate?
*
actually i don understand how can u torrent 24/7 cos once u download wat u want that it. why download more?

also abit of bandwidth management will go very far such as sharing the shows like Lost, bones and so on with housemates.

[quote=orenzai,Jul 2 2010, 01:19 AM]Yeah thats why its kinda enough for us to use. Just that the reliability of unifi seems to be not stable. So should I get that or just use the cool uni pack and get a netbook with it. The reseller told me that Cooluni cannot switch over to unifi.

pretty hard decision cos uni pack u can get lower rates for the 4MB connection. I not sure about the stability of of both but i can tell u that unifi is a new wiring design for high speed internet so its for sure u wont suffer disconnections from stuff like rain or poor wiring quality and packet loss and those sort. problem will be at the IP core level.

maybe some1 out there can tell us the speed they get to international websites using unifi and its performance and quality vs streamyx 4 mb package?


Added on July 2, 2010, 4:47 pm[quote=Moogle Stiltzkin,Jul 2 2010, 03:05 AM]What stability issue are you talking about?

First thing you should do is follow Riv's guide to use your own router. With the crappy dir-615 out of the way, then you can do some actual testing. So we can b**** about stability, but at the end of the day we all know that default router is unreliable to do any proper assessment of unifi.

I can get 1.1 Mb/s dl and ul max.

When torrenting, this is not a surety because it really depends on seeds.

I tested speeds on what.cd private torrent tracker and i can get the full speed. I even managed to get max speed on demonoid which is kinda like a private tracker but not quite. Basically for torrent downloads, if it's well seeded, yes you will max out, if not, then no.

Right now i'm downloading a torrent and it fluctuates between 300 kb/s to 1 Mb/s but this is nothing to do with Unifi stability :/ (especially since i am not using their shitty router, mines an ESR-9850)

Using Jdownloader to download megaupload sources using a premium account, i can max out using 4 connections.
Mirc download via xdcc bots does not seem to be throttled. When downloading from a xdcc bot on 4mb streamyx i only got like 10-30 kb/s but on unifi i get the full 200-400 kb/s from the same bot. If you are wondering why that isn't near the 10mbps broadband speed, that is because mirc xdcc bots usually have lower upload caps then if you downloaded from torrent or direct download most of the time. Anyway my example is just to show there is no throttling active for mirc as of yet.
Currently i am satisfied with the dl/ul speed i am getting right now, although 10mb broadband should be hard capped @ 1.2 Mb/s, but the max i've seen is 1.1 Mb/s. They really should hard cap at the promised speed, and not just slightly below it like they always do :/ Maybe Riv can explain why it is like this.
As for IPTV, it streams fine with no stutter when using my Homeplug as i don't want long dangling rj45 ethernet cables stretching around the house.

Does fax work? Not that i have seen.
Iphone need a physical wire from the modem directly to it. So if you want to put the iphone in the living room, and the router in another room, you will have a small ugly wire dangling on the floor, can't be helped. Iphone wiring is the only part i didn't particularly like.
my 10 mb is being shared between 5 devices and there seems to be enough bandiwidth going around for computer users. I'm a downloader and the other users are mostly surfers. I segregated the bandwidth allocation to 8mb and 2mb. 2mb is used by all other devices, and mine uses 8 mb minimum reserved bandwidth.

I just give my setup as an example. If you want a bigger pie for bandwidth allocation, then you'd have to go for 20mb so more bandwidth to go around.
For web hosting, all unifi packages are fine since the uploads are same speed as the downloads. You can visit my website to see how it is like. I have some downloads available for the time being for testing web hosting speed, however i already setup a QOS to limit the upload for it doh.gif

The only thing that could ruin unifi right now is cap if it ever gets enforced. Right now it hasn't yet :/

My usage for July has reached 152gb but no sign of any throttling so far doh.gif
@blacktrix

If you already followed Riv's guide and it still does not work, i suggest you pm Riv for help. I'm using my own router and it works. My router doesn't even have any vlan sort of capability (not that i know anyway).
@calvin92

24/7 torrenting isn't really the issue, although i wouldn't recommend using the default dir-615 for torrents as it wouldn't last for 24/7 torrent sessions  laugh.gif  What matters is the monthly bandwidth for dl/ul. Right now it isn't capped, but when it is, then people will start to cry. Especially when your sharing that pie of bandwidth with other users on your network.

The reason they leave on torrent 24/7 is usually because they are seeding. If your a member of a private torrent tracker, keeping your dl/ul ratio to an acceptable level by seeding is very important. Not to say there aren't people who literally download 24/7, but seeding is usually the reason and very important need for 24/7 torrenting.

Yup definitely understand. I can tell u that most people will get bored of downloading after a time. When i went to UK where broadband is super cheap+ fast for like 20MB connection unlimited i do download like mad maybe 2-3 months then u sorta don't do that so much cos i guess when u know its always available u tend not to over excited. People will eventually download wat they need. I guess it be smart if TM give unlimited cos that is likely to happen to most people.


Added on July 2, 2010, 4:53 pmBy the way, normally how long it takes after registration before the Unifi guys come to install? Sorry if i didn't read back...it's a long thread.
BTW, Calvin92, don't bother to reply if ur going to be 'clever' again.

I'd go for biz5 but I really prefer having 20mbps of max bandwidth. We could probably get them to remove the daily cap but I'm sure the monthly cap will stay. Perhaps our best option is to come up with a local p2p system and pool our resources together.. saving the available data quota for streaming purposes. I've seen it work on those uTorrent webui services here on LYN anyway :3
*
Yup i was thinking of this too why cant we setup a well establish local P2P system to upload and download popular things like tv series 24, Lost and HK drama. this will reduce the need for importing connection from abroad

Is it possible for TM to transfer your old landline number from copper to Voip so that we will not have to pay for the cost of 2 line if people like me wish to keep 1 line with the OLD number been used for many years and known by many people.
