Just got VIP5 and they completed installation but i was using a normal b/g router now the one they give comes with N but the signal strength in my room is still 2 bars ?? O_O
Location of router same spot.

My router model is D-LINK DIR 615

Practically everyone's looking for way out of the crappy DIR-615.. The thing's antenna seems not powerful enough.

Alot of people asking about BIZ5 package for home. Some claim the gateway is better/faster.

Is this true or there is a better explanation ?

Hello all, what are the highest kbps you ever obtain from downloading?
Direct/Torrent
Browser/Download Manager

there asking it because biz 5 package will no have data cap in near future compare to vip5 which is only temporary no limit.

I have just got my installation done today...after 3 hours.....

So far speed is consistently maxing out up and down about 5Mbps. But I realised my latency is about 200ms even pinging a server in KL. Will that be a problem?

Another problem I have is, I realised when I turn on my Unifi Router, my parents Room's TV will flicker, i guess the signal is too strong affecting the tv ? Anyone having the same problem or solution?

thanks

VIP5 user here....

638KB/s for direct download/torrent.........

High rise or landed property? I got 60ms to penang and sometimes kl server... Seri kembangan and kl server hosted by yes always give me 500ms+ ping...
KL, by YES

Seri Kembangan, by Largerserver solution?

Cyberjaya, by TM

Penang...

SG


I don't know why this happens... Might be filing a complaint on this!

Btw, few days back, my IP dropped into 110.XX range. Before that, keep getting 175 range.

Have you done a traceroute to and from you to see the cause of the high pings? (doesn't need to be the same path)

Dear all,

I m planning to get unifi vip5 installed.
I m staying landed property double storey.
Question:

1. TM says they will install decoder, modem wireless router, deck phone, TV decoder.
How is the quality of their wireless modem router?
2. Can i use back my existing Belkin wireless modem router bcoz i afraid their modem wireless router is not as good?
3. After they install unifi, how can i change the unifi password?
4. After they install unifi, how can i change the wireless (WIFI password) such as WEP etc.... ?
5. I have a desktop computer, if i want my desktop computer to connect to the unifi thru wifi instead of using the LAN cable, what do i need to buy? Is it the usb wifi dongle?

6. The equipments they install, still belongs to them right? So if got problem, they will come to my house and fix it??

Advise plssss

Mind teaching? Don't know much about such techny thingy

1. The feedback of the router provided DIR-615 is not good, quite a few complaints if you read around on the board. Mine broke - I didn't bother to get a replacement from TM but bought an alternative (TP Link)
2. I believe you need to still use provided router as a bridge, unless your router supports VLAN tagging, otherwise IPTV won't function
3. I don't know if the Unifi password can be changed (PPPoe password that is) anyway there's no need as it gets saved on the router anyway
4. You can login to the provided router or your own router, to change the WEP password
5. You would need WiFi USB dongle, or PCI card.
6. Not 100% sure , but I guess the equipment still belongs to them , so should be able to replace/fix if any issue. With faulty router I just replaced myself as I was worried the same thing would happen again to DIR-615

Any other site to trace???

tracert is blocked by tm by default. try linux/unix machine to do tracert/tracepath

do you guys know if tm throttle p2p? my utorrent is only getting about 14kb/s!!!! i am on vip20.

how many peers are u connected to ??? and how many seeder does ur torrent have...

I m on a Double Story..the weird thing is, if I ping a Server in Singapore. Latency is about 15ms...

By the way, can I ask, what other Routers are compatible to Unifi?

all routers are compatible.. the only different/problem causing thing is the VLAN ....

the best so far is mikrotik.... rb750/rb750g or you can get

rb250gs to do the vlan management and you can use and kind of after market router you want...

Thanks bro

Btw i have one more problem since installation yesterday. Today I was able to try out the Wifi on my notebook.

I realised when i m in my room (where the router is) I can get connected to the wifi. but when i m downstairs in living room despite Full Signal Bar, i cant get connected.

Any idea?
