Its a YES Fiber Home plan. Its not a 4G internet. True, I cant seem to find it in thee website either. I just know about it from brochure in the management office. From the looks of it, our management support it fully bcause our land line in our home are set to use YES HOME. They just plug it in and its ready to go.

Hi...no wonder i saw it is a LAN port..so does it comes with a modem or something? do you know anything about the upload speed as well ? thanks a lot..

Hi, it does come with a d link modem router which is decent quality compared to tm net streamyx and unifi.

Upload speed seems okay. Based on the test it is actually higher than download speed. And i attached large files, seeded some torrent with no problem. Should be okay right?

hi... Thanks for the info and photos shown....i'll be needing high upload speed as my work required to send out several GBs of reports and photos .. shall apply this thing when i move in... Thanks mate !

bro i got my YES 6mbps installed 2 days ago,
the free 2000minutes calls is only for yes to yes network right,
so if we call a tm number it will be charged

Yes.. That should be correct. How do you enjoy the internet?

No one use landline nowadays anyway.. But, still..

yes home is as good as unifi, you get a public ip too, p2p no throttle, overall happy with it

can we send a petition or something to MPS to shut down the music from the nearby temple? its too long and too loud at 6am-9 am. then 5pm -8pm.

I have raised this in my post before but seems like i'm the only one having this problem..

I dont mind the music if its short.. But its is too long and sometimes to loud..

Maybe the petition should be for them to lessen the volume or shorten the lenght. Since it maybe a mandatory religious activity we cant urge them to completely shut down the music.

Any comments from indian friends?

I notice that today's music was quite loud n long too.

Btw anybody having problem with their astro today? My connection was out since the evening rain.

I went to take a look at a few units in Amara today and I have to say i started to get hooked at some of the units layout.

Particularly the 1051sqft corner have the perfect layout while the 1038(?) second by it. The 8xx ones isnt too bad but sadly no sliding panel for the living room. Never mention the penthouse. Love the size and the huge glass but layout isnt up to my taste.

I have a few key concerns which I am looking to iron out as I am ready to look into buying one :

1. I learned that the internet is powered by YES fiber. What is the maximum speed per household? How's the internet stability? I am currently running 30mbps Unifi.

2. I didnt get to see the parking area but would appreciate any input on that.

3. Lift. When I access the Block A's list, it seems shaky and not stable in terms of impression but Block C / D ones is very smooth and efficient. My concern is how frequent is the break down? Though I am pleased to know that all blocks are linked.

4. Washrooms. I did notice the 2 pipes that looks rather obvious. What measures you take to make it less obvious? This is where my OCD kicks in so badly.

5. Clothes hanging. The yard seems dark and hardly any sun light comes in. How do you all dry your clothes?

I do appreciate if anyone who is currently staying at block C or D mid-high floors to share their input good / bad.

Hey there! looking forward in getting more people here..

since i don't have anything better to do, I'll answer some of your concern:

1. Please check my review on the internet some post ago.. the internet is quite good. Same quality as Unifi. My 6mbps is as good if not better than my father's Unify(5mbps?). I think you can get a 30mb too.. already forgot the packages. its stable as of now..

2. The parking area is nice and cleaned daily. but a concern is where your park is located. Mind you that my parking is at 4th floor and its a STRUGGLE every single day to get in and out..

3. I'm quite surprised that you say the A block is sluggish than C and D. Block A is the best lift here(or maybe C). D? No...no..no... Break down rate? lets say, once a week for A and B.. D....like 2 a day.. (believe me, i gave up going to the gym because of the frequent lift problem).

4. I have no comments on that..

5. My pool view get enough sunlight throughout the day.

Hey, some things to also consider.
1. Centralised astro(non HD)
2. Noise issue (6-9, 5-8 temple music, midnight YTL train noise (they start working in the midnight until morning)
3. Vandalism
4. Several non serious crime
5. Overly strict guards
6. Management issues
7. Traffic jams

just saying.. its not that bad anyway.

saying all that, The goods?
1. Serene environment (when the noise all gone or your minds starts to ignore it)
2. cool atmosphere. You seriously don't need any air conds.
3. amenities are nice. those shops are a huge plus..
4. nearby ktm

Lovely replies! The environment is the main reason why I love Amara. It wins a lot in compare to the already dense PJ, where I am currently living.

I can actually do with the noise issue which isn't a big problem. Also care to share more about the your parking struggle?

On the day of my visit, the block A lift jerks a bit and send shivers to me but when I go around block B to D, the lifts were great and smooth ride. The agent told me the lift in block A isn't as stable as the ones in D so that is how I got the info from

Traffic jam is everywhere and I can say that I am quite blessed with a very good working hours, 7.30 - 4pm, so i can dodge the peak hours jam around the area. Well, at least is way better than PJ in terms of the time to spend in the crawl.

I will have to make do on where to hang the clothes as the unit of my choice only captures the morning sun and no sun shining in after that. The unit faces North East, master bedroom sees the Taman Raintree while the living room is looking at the Batu Caves.

I was told my the agent that they are in the midst of installing the access card for entries up till your unit. Is that true?

I have actually made up my mind to go for it and in the midst of getting a loan package as well as considering on a furnishing loan too

The parking struggle.. Its not that bad, maybe I'm just the type a person who nags alot and prefer straight to the point approach.

Its like this, we were all assign with specific parking lots. Unlucky for me, i got the 5th floor parking. Not only the climb is steep but also quite narrow.. Some people with saloon or bigger car might not be too confident cornering to get to the higher floor in one try. Plus, in order to go from one floor to the other, you will have to go trough another buffering floor.

AND, you will have to go all the way from A to D block And D Block to A Block in order to go one floor higher.

To put it in order is like this:
1.Climb from gate to UG,
2.Climb from UG to UG(buffer floor),
3. cruise from block A to Block D,
4. climb to G.
5. Cruise from D to A,
6. climb from G to 1A,
7. cruise from Block A to Block D,
8. climb from 1A to 1. Congrats! You are now in 1st floor! Repeat steps 4-7. until you reach your floor..

Going to 5th floor is like climbing 10 floor since each floor har a buffering level. It might not seems like an issue at first but if you are doing it in a daily basis, you might get annoyed.

Like today, i start my climb on the begining of Koi Mil Gaya song(it played on the radio, dont judge me.. ) and i finished parking at the end of the song. 4++ minuites just to get in and out of prking is nuts. And its incline too, think of how much gas are thrown away.

How I wish they had build the prking a little bit differently.. Maybe like a corksrew approach. We already know your floor anyway, we never have the need to go to other parking level..the current approach is better suited for place which doesnt allocate prking since you can go to each level and find parking spaces..

But, like i said. Its my problem. Maybe you wont feel the same. If by any means you get G, UG or LVL1 parking, hey.. Awesome deal!

Ah, doesn't sound too bad but do need some patience to get it through. I assume there isnt any mid-ramps along the way from Block A to D then?

Hopefully I can get to ask the parking lots that comes with the unit i am getting, starting to get me curious on its location

I have personally seen some of the pictures of the parking lots, its really well made and clean!

Also one more question, I wonder if we can access to any basketball court nearby at Amara or Taman Raintree? I do inline-skates and that is my very last concern which i am looking to solve

Thanks again for the information and the effort to describe the parking frustration, well appreciated on the details!

Wow didnt know about the robbery in 15th floor block A.hope there is no serious injury.gotta be really carefull.

Anyway,does anyone face any similar situation like mine? : fungus/mold grows like crazy on my wooden furniture.been wiping them several times but they keep on coming

Seriously? When is that? I didnt heard anything. Care to share the details?

No fungus for me.. What floor are you anyway?

Someone mentioned about robbery in 15th floor right in the previous posts right?i dont know the details bro.all this while i thought amara is a peaceful place.gotta be extra careful next time.

Btw im in level 20 bro

Oh.. I thought there was another robbery..

Yeah, i thought so too.. The guards are extremely strict and harsh to us but crime are still happening. I sometimes saw them open the gates for cyclist without access card. Pedestrian are free to come in an out anyway.

But I saw several markings on the wall like number '4'. These marking are everywhere vandalised in batu caves area. I guess its like a territorial markings by gangsters here. Just be extra careful.

Wasn't that a break in?

If anyone can recall the gang wars that happened from Batucaves till Puchong? Gang rival each other due to some misunderstanding? hence the markings were there.

From the property agent I went to see the unit, he shared abit of the story of whats going on but unlikely they will touch places like Taman Raintree and Amara but still be wary on such activities though
