Thank you for the info, so if they change to copper cable after level 5, does this affect the download speed? I use this mostly for gaming, so will this be affected?

Thank you

Speed would not have different, the but ping might be slightly higher..just slightly, but still it depend on TM network

I see, well let just hope for the best

hmm.. in that case gaming will be affected la
plus, u will get signal distraction during rain right? cos its not fibre?

it depends, the best that you try first as I myself never play with vdsl yet.LOL

anyway to be noted that the copper are only from your home to Equipment(MSAN to be exact) located at room below your apartment , those call MDF room, from that room to TM building still using fiber.

VDSL2 can be serve around 500 meter only from equipment to modem,however from equipment to TM building can be up to 10km, depend on the equipment.

so during rain, it would not affect unless your apartment copper wiring is exposed to rain etc which is highly rare i guess..

hey guys, need some help here..
i'm gonna get unifi really soon but before i head over to tmpoint next week, i just wanna get some answers from you guys

here's the thing.
i have two phone lines in my home (don't ask why)
one is for downstairs, another is for upstairs.
the downstairs number is just a regular phone line
whereas the upstairs line is the one that's subscribed to streamyx 2mb.

my plan is to terminate and unsubscribe to the upstairs line.
then using the downstairs line number to subscribe to unifi VIP10..

do you guys think it's a good idea?

i wanna keep the downstairs line because most of my relatives and friends know that number and it would be troublesome to notify them about the new number..

and also, i prefer my modem and router to be placed upstairs where all the computers in my house are, but i also want the IPTV thing to be placed downstairs, where the TV is..

is it possible to have the modem and router to be placed upstairs but the IPTV to be placed downstairs?

thanks in advance

nope you won't be able to maintain that number for your UNIFI line.

they will give you a new number.

heck, even if you have NO phone lines at all, you can still install UNIFI if your area is under coverage.

You can terminate both line as unifi will give you a new number. Unless you really need to maintain that number and willing to pay the normal line rent to keep it.

Yes, get the homeplug for the IPTV.

currently i am still using tomato firmware on my router.. i would like to ask:

riz setup guide on DIR615/RB250GS --> current router select PPPoE

klseet setup guide on RB750/RB750G --> current router select ??
..i notice PPPoE option has been set on RB750/RB750G

It depend on TM. My house at second floor and TM still use fiber instead of VDSL.

Hi, I'm VIP 5 (: new user here and having failure on iptv

alright thanks for the replies

btw approximately how much will a homeplug cost me?

i buy tp link twin pack cost me RM200++

RB250GS handle vlan tagging, so you can use your own router and setup PPPoE will do (like Streamyx).

RB750/750G handle vlan + full router function, you can use any wireless router setup as AP only for WiFi, gateway is the RB750/750G.

less than 2 weeks of Unifi VIP10 package in a condo
-BTU Huawei Adapter hangus in 3 days
-Changed adapter then the internet down again
-using ZTE modem but internet down again
-Total downtime 4 days ++
-technician came 2 times. Waiting for the 3rd time tmr

I have spent more money on my cell making reports then using my unifi. Very unsatisfied

u didnt turn it off when not using?

Erm i also faced that when i just subscribe to unifi. I called them they told me to go to router setting and change the wireless channel. After that i feel my speed back to normal. You connecting through cable or wireless? if through cable also experience such slow speed i think u need to call them.

question..
is there any limit on no of wireless user/devices for the supplied dlink router?
the status at wireless connection remains at 'automatic' it just cannot connect for whatever reason. The signal is good, i.e. not full but 3-4 bar for sure. password also ok...
