Maxis usually will only served high profit/expatriate area, dont think Ipoh will be serve at all....still need to wait for Unifi........lol
YTL Pakatan township at Bercham is served by Maxis ADSL.
Fiber optics is an entirely different infrastructure built. We have Maxis fiber already running at most areas at Pasir Putih(little blue color signs you see beside the road).
If TNB is willing to lease out their poles, then any isp can come to Ipoh and provide their FTTH service including Time/Jaring or Maxis.
I don't put much hope on TM after going through these few months with their 4mbps service.
Almost unusable because I can't seem to get what I paid for when I use it.

Maxis FTTH (Fiber-to-the Home) already launched 1st Sept 2010 in Bandar Utama Phase 11 & Phase 12, and I am using it now !
I stay in Bandar Utama Jalan 12/7, on 1st Sept, a team technical crew came to install the new fiber broadband from Maxis.
Another crew of relations officers also dropped by my home, with a hamper of gifts, a video shooting team & a carricature artist.
Hi TS, any ideas whether your Maxis FTTH service uses VLAN tagging?
IF they are not then it's good news as you might be able to use any broadband routers/home gateways with it to share your connection.
Hope Maxis will be using RF overlay in future to deliver their ASTRO services instead of using the data bandwidth and virtual circuits.
