Is there any way to use TEL2 on the Huawei BTU to map to TEL1? I wanna connect two phones to the same number. If cannot then gotta do old fashion way and split wire.

Anyone knows how to login into the Huawei HG850a BTU recent installs? I think they changed the password or something.. telecomadmin/admintelecom no longer works. Also the web interface login is only accessible for a short while after the BTU boots up. After that it becomes inaccessible (failed to connect). TM may have toughened up the security.

You can easily access the D-Link router to do all the necessary config.. PPPoE, wifi, port forward etc.

It's the Huawei box thats a b*tch to get in. This is where the fiber cable connects to. It handles your voip as well.

Yeah, this also helps improve the wifi connection for me. Previously it always fail to connect or connect but cannot get ip. I think somehow the 'auto channel selection' is messing things up.

That seems overly expensive. I only got charged rm150. With 10m extra cable and going thru ceiling somemore.

The default password should be... no password! Check http://unifi.athena.my for the list of all possible ones. The wifi ssid, channel n all can be changed via manual wireless configuration.

For normal PSTN line, there's a call forwarding service, so in theory could forward incoming calls to unifi number. The only downside is have to pay to maintain old number unless TM willing to give free.

Yeah, I also think true number portability is hard if not impossible to achieve. I worked with some of the telephone exchanges before.. they are really ancient beasts from the 70s. I doubt such funky per-number routing would work without some significant upgrade which would cost TM a lot of money. Not worth it since unifi market so small.

If they use good quality tape (like 3M brand) it should last forever. However kinda odd they use tape cos nails actually much cheaper than tape.

Try turn off the 'auto channel selection' and choose a wifi channel manually. Works for me. The 20 hz setting didnt make a difference.

Just split the phone line like normal.

Yes, can. The output from the BTU is just an ordinary phone line. You can plug in wall socket, split with splitter etc. just as usual. Any analog phone will work.

I only managed to connect with iPhone 4 by doing the opposite.. turning off Auto and manually selecting a channel. Also I left the bandwidth thing at 20/40 MHz.
