The installation went smoothly with no hiccups.
Yes, it's normal if you live in a stratified property, the TM contractor will need to drop by the main server room to do some configuration before heading up to your parcel to complete the installation but those are their concern. Just make sure they come at the time when the Management is still open because the keys to the main server room is with the Management.
The only problem I now have is that I cannot stream HyppTV simply because HyppTV requires "wired LAN connection" from the router to the box itself and the router is currently placed near the DB box because that's where the LAN connection ports are located. For this setup, if i insist on using the HyppTV box then I will have to drag a cat 5 LAN cable all the way from the dry kitchen to the living hall.
Alternatively, you can replace the existing telephone wall jack (near the television wall) with an Ethernet wall jack and then plug your wireless router there, With that distance, you can safely connect the HyppTV box with the wireless router without having to expose any wires on the floor.
To me, replacing the jacks will be too much a hassle and doesn't really bring much benefit to me since I'm getting Chromecast. I'll just cast everything straight from my laptop. HyppTV service doesn't justify the hoo-haa.
OH! i should get my VIP30 upgrade by Friday =)
by then, i should have buffer-less streaming. not that i experienced them alot with my current VIP5.
Great to hear you found a workaround for your connection issue

I thought each unit comes with a phone line and LAN port point in the living room area? If it doesn't then credit goes to my contractor for adding the LAN port point in the living room.
I have my Unifi up and VIP30 speed is a beast! For streamers and torrent-ers of course

But sometimes I still get buffering on a football replays site.
Oh, I just moved in on 30 Oct, Friday. Hello, neighbor!
