nope i dont think so... between wired and wireless services, not much of a different since both are broadband and are offering almost the same speed...and technology like Wimax/LTE is so advanced that it even referred as a standards-based technology enabling the delivery of last mile wireless broadband access as an alternative to cable and DSL... your apple and donkey doesnt apply today but 10 years ago it might...and at the rate of the wireless technology advancement, wireless broadband will surpass wired broadband in terms of speed and offering (in the range 10 - 100 Mbits)...
Do note that we are only comparing broadband services, not leased line or dedicated line...

Some reference
1) Maxis LTE Trial
2) Celcom LTE Trial

Although the last mile is different, one is wired the other is wireless, both are using fiber optic backbone....so this part is still a constant for both equations..

A smart person like u must also know that majority provider regardless wired and wireless are using TM as their backbone (some use as redundancy)...

Perhaps my years of involvement in Internet infrastructure technology doesn't measure to your level of knowledge... you seems to know better than me...
I bet you know what's unifi bandwidth capacity? The actual size of TM fiber optic backbone? How much TM is paying for internet exchange? How much Internet traffic deficit Malaysia is experiencing (more outgoing than incoming)?

I felt really humble by your explanation about Maxis FTTH using TM's Unifi...(they must made the deal when I went to lunch  vmad.gif )
you are truly the Internet connection guru  rclxms.gif

I'm not an expert on this matter, but BlueHeng is probably slightly closer to the correct scenario with our current understanding of physics. Wireless will always be slower than wired broadband given the same technological levels. This is because wireless broadband is limited by available spectrum. Any spectrum that can be allocated for broadband usage will always be limited simply because we need to share the airwaves with other users and devices. Wired mediums have much less constraints.

Based on the info posted before at the Maxis FTTH thread, I believe Maxis only covers very limited areas with their own fibre. Elsewhere piggybacks on Unifi. They did announce a joint agreement with TM not very long ago.

you should look for Total downloaded,
1week = 37GB+
4weeks = 37GB x 4 = ???GB...

There's No way to get UNIFI BILLING DEPT , thus have to show them the HIGHWAY.
here's my email to them.

Just to clarify, you are insisting on getting a rebate for just a few days of downtime due to router failing?

I've had unifi for just a couple of weeks now, and it's been unstable from the beginning.
At first, things were good, speed good, tv working, everything smooth, but after only a few hours I started getting dropouts.
A continuous ping would show connection being up for three minutes, then down for 10 seconds.
Later this changed to up a few minutes, down until reboot of router.
Needless to say, skype was impossible, downloads impossible, tv and phone didn't work.
TM has finally agreed to send some help, an engineer will come on Wednesday. But I'm not impressed with the service, having to wait two weeks to get help.
I'm posting this using my digi 3G, as I'm without connection for a couple of more days.

On the router, things look fine when I power it up, then after a while the VOIP light goes red, dsl starts blinking, and then goes out completely.
I have no access to log on to it, but I can log on to the wireless (DIR-615) and its log says:

"Apr 11 13:21:03  ","PPP: Connection terminated."
"Apr 11 13:20:47  ","PPP: No response to 14 LCP echo requests."
"Apr 11 13:16:41  ","Attack! SYN flooding attack from WAN (ip:69.246.68.222) detected."

"Apr 11 13:10:24  ","Attack! Xmas port scan attack from WAN (ip:127.0.0.1) detected."

"Apr 11 13:10:15  ","IPCP: local IP address ****"
"Apr 11 13:10:15  ","PAP authentication succeeded."

I've enabled firewall, disabled remote auth etc on the DIR-615, but it seems the problem happens before it even reaches the wireless,
a denial of service attack from the outside. What can I do? I tried to explain to Unifi Service that they need to secure my router or give me a better one,
but the persons on the phone had little to no technical knowledge apparently.
Any advice?

Have you tried resetting router settings to defaults and using ethernet connection, only setting up Unifi username and password? Assuming you had not redacted the logs too much, the issue could be below:

"Apr 11 13:21:03 ","PPP: Connection terminated."
"Apr 11 13:20:47 ","PPP: No response to 14 LCP echo requests."

Guys,

Just starting to have my slow connection again... VIP5.

When checked my router...I notice these messages... are they normal (like part of migration thingy?)

The overwhelming majority of the time, these "attacks" in the router logs can be safely ignored as they usually do not mean what it appears to mean.

In simpler terms, do not turn on the router firewall (NAT itself is adequate security) or if you insist on turning it on, do not feel panic after looking at the logs unless you know what it's saying.

Hi, I hope we can discuss this issue so we can find proper solutions.

We've identified that the router wifi signal is extremely weak and prone to fluctuations.

(snip)

Can TM actually do anything about this? If the Router is at fault, how come I can still get (non-constant) speeds of 200-900 KBps?

Also, why is the connection appearing to be better/more stable at a different location on an older laptop, even tho both laptops are equidistant from the router?

Thank you.

We have already given you some steps to try (use ethernet to test) but you seem to be insistent in your assumption that it's not a wifi or router issue you are facing?

Wireless connections fluctuates a lot and is prone to interference. The age of your laptop is not a good indicator of whether it should have better wifi performance or not.

i wonder y some of you chose the easy way by buying TP link router so soon?  i mean you people sign a contract for such product and knowing that monthly payment is withdrawn each month to pay the bill, y the rush to get tplink modem ? i mean , try living without internet for a while , if people from fukushima can live without infra , y cant we wait for tm support to force its suppliers dlink to give latest model? im pretty sure tmnet and dlink had signed a contract as well , rigth?

This is simply a pragmatic move. E.g. most Streamyx packages provide free modem but there is no shortage of market demand for ADSL modems with better features and performance.

So it seems a user has suggested my wifi is bad at a certain location because of interference from other wifi networks (neighbours').

It does ocur to me that some networks have stronger signals at this particular location.

Immediately if I move back to this place I get cuts, even though all the neighbours' signals are very weak.

Is it at all possible to call TM and ask for some replacement router? Surely this is entirely the router's fault?

Yes, you can call them, but if they agree to replace, you will end up with the same model with most likely the same problems. Why bother?
