Next question is this, it seems to be reported that a HomePlug may work even with 3-phase power. Well, the financial risk for experimenting is only RM189, right? Looking at TP-Link's TL-PA211 which klseet posted - for HyppTV. If it works, hacking etc (to run CAT5 cables from 1st floor to ground floor) can be eliminated but if not, there goes the 'investment'. In the worst case case, sell homeplug at a discount Much appreciate it if anyone (incl. hackwire) can post feedback here.
if im not mistaken homeplug will work with 3 phase power but according to the experts, the quality is dependable on a few factors like plug to plug and best not to be sharing or using any 3 way adapters etc. Than it's better off if the connection sharing the same fuse on the main switch point.
my case, i made some sacrifice by using cat 5 cable connection for my IPTV instead of using homeplug as my AV room and PS3 had earlier setup . Further more i don't intent to subscribe to any of the lousy stations right now as i don't really have the time and catch those movies. And i hate Malaysian Censorship board. So i skip the homeplug to connection to my living hall TV. I can live with that.
Past 1 week, my attempt to get Unifi tech finally successful and these guys came to my place and give 1 to 1 exchange for my router as it's " Dead" , just one week after the installation. luckily enough, i kept a log and will request for a rebate soon.
i have no intention to change to TP-link yet as i think a contract is made between me and TM for 2 years and it's my duty to pay monthly and it's their duty to ensure i get the smooth operation. Moreover, i don't really know how to go through the configuration part for TP-link and not yet ready to fry my brain for this until i got no other choice.
I was wondering if those of you change to TPlink router so quick, wouldn't that void the guarantee ?
