To know if your home can subscribe to the Maxis Home Fibre Internet or not, check if UniFi is available or not.

No UniFi = No Maxis Home Fibre Internet

im a new maxis home fibre user so i get DECT (Cordless) Phone (Aztech E 310) and White color residential gateway (TG 784) plus a modem from UNIFI. From my understanding maxis bought a bandwidth from TM,so all the infra still provided by TM. When the installation, TM technician also came to open the port and set the UNIFI account for me. Because i remember when we do the speed test for first time, i only got 4Mbps. The Maxis technician asked the TM technician to check with their center have they set the account to 10Mbps? Apparently TM set my speed at 4Mbps at first. The maxis technician is only came to gave the phone and thompson and configure something in thompson so i can get IP from maxis. Maxis is totally piggyback the UNIFI.
*
If this is the case, our speed depends on TM's network backbone .... not really good in terms of resolving issues later on. a blame game may happen between TM & Maxis, with customer stuck in between. shakehead.gif ohmy.gif

You are right Swordylove. Regarding the quota they given Unlimited (until further notice) is make a bit confuse. Look like not worst IF we apply now then 1 year later they say quota change since we have sign up 2 years contract.
*
Only when TM starts their quota, only then Maxis will follow suit lah... enjoy the unlimited quotas NOW.

So that means 3 equipments la? phone, RG, and modem... not like what appeared on Maxis website... phone and wireless modem router (all-in-one). Can anyone confirm this? DrPitchard?
You're right la. If want to complain about a problem and it's TM's fault then will take long to solve the issue  unsure.gif

The 2 devices mention by Maxis is provided by Maxis...
The BTU device is provided by TM... thus not shown (not relevant from Maxis POV)

Quotas are usually calculated data downloaded + data uploaded.

Looks like the latency of Maxis Fiber service to Singapore,Seoul and US is 40% lower than my Unifi VIP20(direct fiber connection).Maxis uses the same fiber infra but a different gateway?!
*
That's very good for Maxis to share Fibre Infra only. I never want to use TM's "over-subscribe" gateway also.

Damn....Just thought of one major problem if I switch to maxis fixed line. 99% of the outgoing calls from my home fixed line were calling TM fixed line. That means no longer free call.  sad.gif

Don't switch..... else call all your friends on their Maxis mobile or "tempt" them to MNP to Maxis smile.gif

If take Maxis Fibre, will it have the Astro channel also like Unifi HyppTV?
If yes, then can terminate Astro also lor....hehe

Dont tembak....lazy to read the details...


Added on June 4, 2012, 1:19 amMaxis call it Smart TV....hmmmm


Added on June 4, 2012, 1:25 amTerminate Astro save          RM132.50
Terminate Unifi save          +RM149.00
Take up Maxis Home Fibre  - RM118.00
Total savings                      RM163.50

Pls prove my CBA is wrong.
*
To watch the same Astro channels, you have to pay the same amount... savings = RM31 only.
Do you think Astro's gonna let them lose so much money RM164 ?

The is no such thing as MNP TM fixed lines. To evaluate the actual cost savings of rm30 between unifi and maxis home fiber more precisely,  one have to relook at his past TM homeline bill for free calls made to TM fixed lines nationwide. As we're all aware that 99% of all fixed lines nationwide are from TM. Switching over to non TM fixed line would means you have to pay for calling a non individual like offices, banks, government, non toll free helpline line maybank2u 1300886688 etc etc.
*
My idea was
1. call them on their Maxis Mobile
2. If they are not on Maxis Mobile, MNP their mobile to Maxis lah... of course I know fixed line cannot MNP (Mobile Number Portability)

Your case is special.... with lots of fixed line calls..

I am lazy to read through 8 pages so i'm going to ask here.

1. I am only 1 year through to my VIP10 UNIFI FTTH.
2. I want this as it is cheaper than VIP10 (and also unlimited)

Any hopes?

Thanks!!!

Unifi's Contract is normally 24-month

Just install this morning...however the speed is not stable ranging from 3mbps ++ to 9.6mbps

I believes the speed should be stable rite?

Broadband is never stable... we get average speed.
Best speed = 70-80% of subscribed speed
