Guyz,do u know how much the installer charge if i need merely around 20m-30m of lan cable in order to connect the iptv to my tv at 2nd floor??That day when the installer came and install unifi,i told them that i don't need iptv at that moment,but after a while why not give it a try..Plus already paid for the monthly package somemore..huhu..No homeplug for me as i think i'll get bad signal due to old plug point connection

You never know., homeplug may work perfectly well for you. You only need 8 Mbps for IPTV, a 200 Mbps will give you a lot of spare bandwidth already.

It's more expensive n i do doubt it will run perfectly in the house..huhu..If i got the cable,the installation for the iptv is not that hard right??Anyone care to give me some guidance..Thanks

If you don't mind cable running around then it is better. For me, I hate to see exposed cable

It won't running around..Will hide it that's for sure
Just need some guide on setting up the iptv then i'm good to go

20 - 30m Cat. 5E cable should not be any problem (as long as not exceed 95m). I am using homeplug as Akerue mentioned as I can't really hide the Cat 5e aka ethernet aka LAN cable

Guys, how troublesome it is to setup this unifi?

I'm planning for the VIP5 but looking as how complicated it is, I plan to go for the 4MB package instead though its RM9 difference.

Any advice?

How many homeplug you buy?Because my family nag me already pulling wires from PC(Bottom floor) to Router(Top Floor)

Plus my homes use alot PC..so nid use alot Lan Cable..

Just registered Unifi This afternoon at Cyberjaya TMpoint... i thought i'm insane to arrange Installation date on 30th october 2010, but a person beside me arrange installation on his VIP10 on 4th January 2011... it's a uncle... that says his house still under renovation.. only can "Siap" at that time... i was Sooo Shocked.. that he really do that.. >.<

now i have 1043ND... so any configurations needed to be done on the router on Unifi Settings?

tq~

lol all wana avoid the rm200.

i just installed my Unifi in my apartment today. Need some wiring and roughly 1m = RM4. Roughly need rm60 then i ask for wired casing as well as is so ugly see-ing blue wire hanging on all side wall. Don't really got time to play with the router yet as going out-station 2mro.

Anyone having problem with the Live TV? mine don't have picture only can see a broken satellite icon at screen. i can access the net, VOD, telephone no problem just not Live Tv. I'm at Damansara Utama. I called tech support last nite, they said the have reset my connections but until now its still down.

Just use a strong wireless router such as netgear WNDR3700. Other than IPTV. PCs are doing fine with a strong wireless router.

I only used a pair of Homeplug for IPTV, all my PC/MAC, network media server (Squeezebox) are connected wirelessly.

My kids going to like it!

You can safely ignore the webbox. Web interface administration for RouterOS is quite minimal and you can't really do much. WInbox is the way to go. Check out their terminal window from winbox. One of the better command line tool around that does real time check (with color code) as you type.

I see there is also an 85Mbps home plug. Has anyone tried that? Will it work with the IPTV?

I cannot watch Live TV since two days ago...

I have been experiencing ping timeout ( 20-30 ping OK, then another 30-40 ping timeout ) the whole day...

I've been graphing ping response time for sites like TM nameserver, Gmail & Bing, I usually get like 15ms but for the last 2 days since 28th Sept, the ping times have been doubled..

Is it just ME or everyone else also encounter the same issue of ping timeout on and off ?

I'm located in Mont Kiara with a VDSL2 ( multi tenant unit ) unifi VIP5 connection, got my unifi on the 20th Sept..

Added on September 30, 2010, 12:39 pmShould work fine.. BUT...

85Mbps is like the marketing "speed" like the 45Mbps for wireless G and 150Mbps for wireless N..

The more power extension chords or 3 point adapters you use or the further away the two homeplug is located.. the lower the speed..

I m using a pair of HomePlug 85Mbps for my HTPC at the living room BUT pulling Cat5 cables for the IPTV...
