Don't think you can have a switch between BTU and STB/RG. It has to be BTU -> RG -> 1. STB; 2. Switch.

Yes correct. Overlooked that part.
@kclai Its best to pull 2 RJ45 cables. 1 direct to the STB. One more to the switch/router/repeater.

If you're installing RG at different location than STB, I always advised my friends who are renovating their house to pull 2 cat5e cables from RG to TV location. This is because network cannot share same cable with STB and it would come in handy when you want to add media player, bd-live or smart tv in future. Irony is myself only install one cable because there is no Unifi when I did my renovation several years ago.

Same here. pull extra never mind. also another thing to take into account when doing renovation is the 13a socket outlet. The more the better.

I added 15 points in my server room lately. Still not enough cry.gif

You can actually run two separate network devices using 1 Ethernet cable. Google for "network splitter". Ethernet cables have 8 wires but only 4 are used. It's not really perfect but it saves you having to hack the wall and run new cables. The cost is very minimal.

Another option is to use mikrotik routers to do vlan tagging and untagging

Thanks to rattan for smooth application process! I have fixed Saturday for installation (originally Friday).

I wonder what I could do during this time to "ease" their installation process... perhaps pull out my computer LAN cable (no, not hank it out but have it more accessible to them), my phone wire, 4 free main sockets etc.

What else should I "prepare" ? Also, I am not sure about the ethernet the router Unifi uses - I use a PS3, Xbox 360 and a PC for ethernet. I wonder how many maximum ethernet port it has.

Custom make...shops in lowyat can offer this service or even forumers in the tradezone
But do realize that 100m is the max for Ethernet cable so get good quality cble

Isn't it more cost effective to rent servers from european datacentres than setting up servers at home?

No problem bro, my pleasure serving you notworthy.gif

You dont need to do anything. Just sit back and relax. The only thing that would really put a smile on the installer face is a chill bottle of coca-cola after the installation is done. Nothing beats chill cola in a hot sunny weather rclxms.gif

How do I know whether it's a good quality or not? I'm kinda a noob in this department. T_T
