just check my,result in my sig.

Anyone here using Aztech HomePlug HL110E to connect between your router to set up box ??

I tried to register online just now. It reached the step after I reserved a number, it said I already have a streamyx account and told me to select existing client option.....there is not link to do that and when I tried to sign up again the tel no. already reserved (by me lor!).

I used to have streamyx a/c like 5 yrs ago in another state and I forgot about it....
I called TM and they said the reserved number will be release in 24 hrs. Looks like I have to wait to register again.

Another info, the TM staff said although there is no installation fee and free 1 month fee, I will still be charged 1 mth advance fee just like registering a new tel line. So if I reg VIP5, then my first mth bill would not be free but billed 149 as advance payment.

just for info, guys.

Check Post #985 here.

So if you install this month, by end of the month you need to pay for next month usage. By next month you need to pay for May's usage.

But this is only for the broadband. The telephone calls (to handphone, etc) still charge after you use.

When the contractors visited the house, what will be the most important thing to look out for before signing the paper after they had install everything and leave the place for another rush job? As you know, contractors are contractors who are quite linear in their work when comes to rush work.

I can name a few thing here but perhaps there are other thing that i miss.

1) Ask them what's the password and changing the password without screwing the configuration for newbie like me.

2) Confirm there's no extra charges before signing
3) IPTV password and everything in good order .
4) Make sure that they setup the security to WPA .
5) Disable Remote Management
6) Telephone Check
7) Wireless Area Check with own laptop
8) Get the person name and contact number in case we need him back or report to Telekom for whatsoever reason.. hell knows
9) Check cable installation for any shoddy work like few wall plugs etc
10) Remote Control Functioning

Anything else...?

1) they do give a a few piece of papers that contain all your details.
5) remote management is disable in newer firmware 7.09.

err, just one question my friend say we can output movie from desktop, got such thing?

What is the meaning of "output" movie from desktop? Watch movies on your desktop through set-top-box or what?

Sure you can.

Did you see the box where the fiber cable go into?
Inside that box, there is a coupler. That is the place where they extend the fiber cable into the house.
A coupler is just a holder, holding the 2 connectors facing each other so that the light can pass through.
That is how they extend the fiber cable.

A friend told me his amazing set up:
He stay in his father's house, and his father does not want external wiring inside the house.

What he did was, the BTU, router etc is placed in the store room, then he install HomePlug to connect his STB and PC to the router which is a distance away.

He bought a pair of HomePlug device, each connected to router and PC/STB.


No need wiring at all.

Don't feel the "amazingness"... Placing in the store room got high chance of getting cockroach laying eggs on it or mouse pee on it (possible but i'm more to like jk). If it's a closed air with no ventilation, the router can be fried very soon. haha

that's true. D-Link Dir-615 can get very hot without proper ventilation. even put it under normal room temperature also can make the router untouchables due to the heat produced, what more a closed, poorly ventilated room.

To avoid massive wiring inside your house, u can use HomePlag device.
Basically, connect your router using rj45 to homeplug, plug into power socket, then another homeplug connect to PC.

Hmm.. Why not btu->homeplug->router in living room?

Thats a good idea. Easier bro.

UNIFI installed today for 20Mbps. Everything has been setup however the Hypptv still have problem. There are no live display. They will come back tomorrow to check further.

Today they came here from 2.30 pm until 9.00 pm.. too much installation problem..
