Hi All,

I am an existing YES user and wish to install Time.

Reason is because i got a parttime job from US (follow US time) and requires alot of internet bandwidth. At peak, i can use up 500MB of Yes Quata in a single day (due to VPN and video conference call).

Would like to ask whether following is possible with Time Fibre Broadband:
1) Hows the latency and speed from here to New York and from here to France?
2) Does Time provide an iphone / Android App (like Yes Life) so i can make call from the smart phone? I like this option because i have a decent headset. If not, any other options?

I had Time fibre intall last wednesday, the speed is exceptionally fast!!

So fast that 6 hours later, it goes down to 0Mbps. Apparently the condo's splitter fibre point was disconnected by another contractor. After calling the helpdesk, they recognize the issue and promise to solve the soonest.

Time engineer even came during awal muharam holiday and rectify it in the morning. Fast internet, clean installation, good service and Time contractor/people are highly skilled and professional.

This is my best internet experience ever.

Hi guys,

Is anyone experiencing broadband outage in kl?

I just called time cs. It seems whole kl is down. sad.gif

While i was on my way back home, I got a call from the agent who sign me up with Time fiber. He gave me a call around 6pm just now, asking if the internet was fine at my home.

When i reach home and turn on the modem + router, to my surpise, router is "dead" and the modem LOS signal is not blinking.


So i have two problems:
1) Linksys router dead, cannot access 192.168.0.1 with cable (all lights on router are on, and not blinking)
2) No LOS light, means no internet

Hi Bro,

You need to use a cable to connect directly from the Cisco E1000 router to your computer to test, don't depend on wireless signal.

Hi Bro,

PLease check it out with TIME CS whether your condo is still affected by the last week disaster, which caused many buildings in KL down.

PON light shld be constantly on, LOS light shld b off.

Cisco Linksys default IP is 192.168.1.1 unless u changed it.

192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 both also dead. Because ipconfig shows no address given from the router. the router confirm is dead. CS confirm the hardware faulty and engineer is coming today for exchange and further investigation too.

Are you saying they replace 3 E1200 router at yr place to get it working at last ?

Hi Bro try using a repeater.

Yes, they replace my E1200. and 2 other place too (which is also cisco router faulty).

Guess what, as of last night, i discover the cisco router given to me is also faulty doh.gif . This new router given to me, will crash every 3-4 hours. It will still broad cast wifi signal after 3th hours, but cannot connect. at 4th hour, it will crash and no wifi signal, even my PC that connect via Lan also has no IP at all.

I know this is not TIME's fault, but instead, Linksys's fault. They are coming today again to replace the router rclxub.gif

Well done Cisco, are you trying to kill your brand?

Hi Bro,

As far as I have tested, E1200, E1500 also not really reliable. E1500 also facing similiar problem like you just couldn't connect to Internet & it always says Cannot get IP from PPPOE.

E1000 is fine but obsolete d, E2000 also OK.
Guess i am in luck. this afternoon the engineer came and replace my E1200 to E1000. Up to now it is ok.

Problem is, i am unable to get any signal in my bedroom. But i think i can live with that.

Oh no
My los light blinking red and pon light is off
Cs asked to switch off and on in 15 minutes but to no avail

Only my 3rd day of using. ... disappointed

Today is my 7th day since it was installed. and i already have 4 Time service form with me.

Form 1) installation.
Form 2) No internet, LOS is blinking. (cable snap at splitter room, some other contractor snap my cable)
Form 3) Router problem (totally dead)
Form 4) Router problem (ok for 3 hours. then it will crash)

But, their service is good and engineer is also skilled and polite. If they say they come, they really come. Much better than unifi and YES.

ps: What YES say to do, 99% they never do doh.gif
