Deposit wise have to ask the agent.. But I know d installation fee is waived until june (rm200) grab it fast if u want it.. It's better alternative if compare to unifi.. Cheaper n higher speed. With free phone calls some more..

how can i check the availability Maxis Home Fibre at my place cause Unifi cannot reach my place

http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/hsi/search.asp

u can check is ur area covered over here

No deposit actually.....also waived till 30 June 2012. Or not, the phone deposit fee would be RM75 for Malaysians and RM300 for non-Malaysians.

Yeap, loads of free calls to Maxis mobile numbers and also on the customers Maxis postpaid line itself... :-)

Guys, I want to ask
1)where are the majority of you guys using the service?
2)Any downtime experience?
3)How's the customer service?
4)How to pay the bill and billing charges?

The new offer is very tempting and my area (Bdr Sri Damansara) is in both Unifi and Maxis FTTH.

Hope you guys can answer my question

answered through PM

wow... such a great deal for anyone who like to upgrade their existing Internet plan. Btw, can we keep our existing TM phone number if we migrate to Maxis fiber Internet?

Unfortunately, that is not possible. The current TM phone line/number has to be terminated and upon registration of Maxis Fibre Home, a new number will be assigned. It will be a local area prefix number (etc: 03-XXXX XXXX) for Klang Valley area.

I thought unifi VIP10 package have a download speed of 1mpbs?

30 channels basic that astro normally offer is it? (like rtm1,2 n etc)?
Comes with decoder?

I also want to know this if cn download using torrent

For those that have subscribed to Maxis Home, have you found any need to change the Thomson router, to say a TP-Link or Asus? A quick glance at the Unifi threads show that changing routers is almost a given.

So, can you change to your own equipment and if you did, what was your experience? Brands and models and settings used would be helpful to the community.

hi, i got many doubt ><
is it possible torrenting? how about the speed for torrenting? will give block?
how about PPS? will other pc user lag if got ppl PPS in same house?
if exceed 100GB dl+upload, will the speed be limit?

thank you

Is this fibre thing available in apartment?

im in puchong and my current home phone is using maxis line. so i supposed i could retain my house number then?

by the way, it is registered under my uncle's name. but could i register the fibre line under my name? i m currently using maxis handphone line with ivalue 2 plan too. how to enjoy the free calls then?

sorry last but not least, is it possible to sign up this 2 years plan and in between if i move back to my hometown in jb, i could still use it?

thanks for your kind reply!

so total 1st payment need to fork out how many billion?

so total 1st payment need to fork out how many billion?

So far using the thomson router no problem.

Like lionelzc and ressko, I too got plenty of questions. Seems like there are not many Maxis Fibre users here on lowyat b*tching about service. For a streamyx user like me, it's all a bit too good to be true. Are there really no problems / downtime / DCs / slow connections with Maxis Fibre, or are Maxis users just not hanging out in Lowyat?

The 24-months contracting is off-putting, but I pay the same amount for the new 10MB plan and I only get 1MB from Streamyx. Not gonna keep doing that any longer.

Yes, you would need to walk into the nearest TM Point to terminate UniFi and at the same time, apply for Maxis FTTH. Most of my customers apply such that the termination date coincides with the installation date of Maxis FTTH.

I shall let the others speak then.... :-)

Added on May 20, 2012, 3:22 pmAll fibre cable internet providers have a 24 months contract at the moment and it is standard as the cost to lay out the infrastructure is really quite costly.

More value added goodies will come for sure.... :-)
