I must say thx to Tentris for alerting the right channels. Lets hope now something can be done about it.

It's one thing when the user does something stupid that leaves themselves open to attacks (like setting dmz or what not); but it's different when your isp treats your security as if it is of no consequence to them, that is bollocks.

I too wonder why there has not been any group law suits against them for exposing our networks needlessly, if anything like this happened in any western country, there would be heavy fines or what not  And remember, it's not just home users who are affected by this, but businesses as well who have a lot more to lose 
Anyway other than that issue mentioned above, my Unifi 10 mbps is doing pretty well 

Also. Why is Microtik RB250GS is better than the DIR-615?

Dear Aizuddin,

Following up on our email discussion, thank you again for your help highlighting this important UniFi Residential Gateway (RG) issue in your blog “Hacking Ethics -- Unsecuring UniFi” published on 25th October.

Your concern on matters regarding UniFi is highly appreciated and we have taken note of the hacker access into the UniFi RG (router). In fact, this is in line with our regular security review of the active elements of our UniFi network service delivery platform. We do admit that we have also seen this possibility and are currently taking the necessary action steps to address the issue, as follows:

1.      Disabling remote access to the UniFi RG for all UniFi customers.

2.      For a longer term solution, we are working with our equipment supplier to address the matter raised, which includes planned firmware upgrades. This, together with our ongoing action plan related to the deployment of an end-to-end customer service delivery, will soon mean that RG remote access management would no longer be required for future customer troubleshooting. This will also provide our customers with further enhanced security features. We have an intermediate timeframe for this .

We believe the matter of RG security will only have an impact on the user’s Internet and IPTV connectivity. However, as an added precaution, we urge customers to take the relevant steps to protect their PC content, as the risk of it being accessed by hackers is independent of any RG issue.

As for the issue of BTU security, to the best of our knowledge, this can only be physically accessed at the user’s premise and not remotely. We are still investigating the telnet claim.

The provisioning of any new service utilising new technologies, will bring in its wake challenges such as this. However, we reassure our customers that TM will always place customer security as a top priority and we will not compromise on this.

We would also like to take this opportunity to express our sincerest appreciation to all our UniFi service users who are very active in their postings through online forums, blogs and discussion groups about their various experiences with the service. This provides us a source of valuable feedback from the ‘ground’ as well as a platform to further carry-out service improvements for the betterment of UniFi customers.

Yup I'm aware of that.
tentris seems to be away or too busy, I got no reply on that thread.

Btw, can you help me ask if they have a clear communication on whether existing Streamyx/Landline users migrating to Unifi can be migrated automatically + retain old phone number, instead of having to cancel separately? E.g. My dad has been a TM user for more than 30 years and he had to cancel the 30 year old home phone number + streamyx account when migrating. This also had to be done separately. It's sad losing that old number and will my dad be considered just a 1 year old account? It might be too late for me, but I'm sure other new sign ups would appreciate this feature.

heyhey guys...if i apply unifi,can i ask them dun install HyppTV?

even if the house dun hv TV,they will oso install? ~~
