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.

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 family member cook porridge over TM free calls with inter city relatives. Damn..
Asking other people to change and suit my advantange is not an option for me.


You have problem expressing yourself without putting unpleasant language in your reply ? my apology to you if I hit you soft spot unintentionally, seriouly i have no intetion whatsoever to doubt your vast knowledge in telecommunication.
Incase i need to stretch again, I'm talking about the calls from Maxis fixed line to TM fixed line. Not calls made to mobile, therefore mobile MNP is irrelevant in my discussion.
I certainly agreed with your statement that 'people use mobile phone a lot' and 'fixed line is history' if I'm looking at it from a carefree individual point of view. But as the matter of fact, fixed line is not yet a history if you have the change to look at it from a different perspective such as you as a company, an office bearer, you as a care taker of your elderly parent at home, etc etc.
we are merely discussing advantages and disadvantages of switching over to maxis home fiber, there is not need to rave and mouth foaming

Friend familiar to networking said 10mbps is achievable for domestic servers located in Malaysia only because sharing of fibre infra with TM Unify dose not include TM overseas fibre.
Accessing overseas portals such as You tube and Google should be fast since they have local servers in Malaysia.

To verify this claim, He suggest those who already have Maxis fibre home 10MB go to speedtest.net to do a comparison speed texts ie oversea server and Kuala Lumpur server.

If you have done the comparison tests, please post the result here. Thank you.

When technician ask you to do a speedtest, secrectly select overseas server, see can achieve 10mb or not, if cant, complaint to the technician and see whether he can do some tweakings for you untill u satisfy with the speed.

Hang or buffering ?? What is your Kuala Lumpur speedtest result and what is your international server speed test result ? Are your watching "Assthrow" channels or PPS ?

 Calls to non-Maxis fixed lines @RM0.05/min local & RM0.09/min nationwide. No more unlimited free call to tm fixed line but can be compensated by 600 free minutes to maxis mobile, 200 free idd call minutes, 150 free minutes from your maxis mobile to any malaysian telco. I excluded the unlimited free calls to maxis fixed line as it is still not relevant at the moment.
The total free minutes Is worth over rm100 already based on average market price if one fully utilise it.
You lose some, you gain some, depending on your preference.

Can watch Assthro contents. But seems like it doesn't go well with MHF. Maybe Durian host the contents at overseas server ?

In the bedroom ? You sure you want to sleep near your wifi modem at full radio wave strength ?
It's best to put it at the TV rack in the living room for future IPTV connection. Saving RM200 for the cost of buying a pair of HomePlug.

What about your China connection ? Maybe the Luilian server is hosted in China.
Ping so high
If you are loading more on overseas contents, you probably wouldn't be able to enjoy the 10MB speed.

You china connection speed is acceptable. LETV, PPS and pptv on SD should be ok right ? can stream HD movie from LETV, PPS, PPTV ?

MHF blocked third party SIP / VoIP using smartphone on wifi ?

Gee..!. U shouldn't let the technician go away before they tweak it atleast close to advertised speed. What about your china and USA speed test ?

Boy, if maxis cant resolve this issue, users are going to regret for the rest of 24months. Have you guys seen any cooling of period in tnc ? I can't find it.

Can you report your china, Singapore, USA speedtest result please?
I guess Malaysian surfers surf more overseas sites than local sites.

Just got this info that MHF VoIP fixed line CAN'T forward voice calls.

If one plan to fully utilise the 600 free minutes by forwarding incoming calls to his Maxis mobile or hotlink during a long outstation trip, it is not possible at the moment.

Is conventional analog Panasonic fax machine supported ?
Is there an extra phone line port for this purpose?

Gee...how's your overseas servers speedtest ?

https://forum.maxis.com.my/forum_topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3400

maxis helper in maxis forum gave wrong info about 150 free minutes on maxis mobile ?

I doubt even Sandip Das has answer for you too. The most appropriate answer at the moment is "quota will be implemented when the Maxis Home Fibre network gets congested"
However, my persona prediction is that it will come faster than Unify based on the fact that Maxis has no control over fire infra and Maxis is a profit oriented company rather than TM, a GLC with social responsibility back ground.

If you are hardcore down loader, you should stick to Unify or Streamyx.
If you are hardcore porridge cooker over maxis voice network, then MHF is an undisputed option.

If I'm not mistaken, yes you still can register later. Maxis home fixed line also gives you 600 free minutes to call all maxis mobile numbers and is worth rm60 already if based on market average on-net call rate of 10sen per min.
