My area here is Taman Pelangi, JB, also no more ports. When I went to the TM Centre, all they could advise is to install Streamyx for the time being until the next UNIFI subscriber in my area will give up their subscription.
I'd even told them that there are already 2 guaranteed customers: my immediate neighbor and myself, because we are both on ABN and it had gone bankrupt and stopped services since 03 July 2015. Sigh, want to give them business they also don't want.

QUOTE(chungdavi @ Aug 14 2015, 04:53 PM) Do sign up for Streamyx first while waiting for installation of new Unifi port, you'll never know how long the wait will be. Probably 2 new subscriptions weren't enough to convince them to install new port. From what I heard, 1 port is usually distributed to 8 units, and they require at least 4 of the units subscribed before they can consider installing a new port. Sounds terrible, does that mean as long as there's no new user subscribing for your area you'll have to keep waiting? Looking at my neighbors all using Maxis Fibre and Unifi, and no one seems to be moving out any time soon, I seriously have no idea how long my wait is going to be. I won't feel surprised if it's gonna take me 3 or 4 years of wait. Yup, will have to consider that as a last resort. Presently using YES 4G huddle, but it's too expensive for downloading. Casual email and surfing is still tolerable.

QUOTE(chungdavi @ Aug 16 2015, 12:27 AM) I'm using Yes 4G as well, and every month I'm paying more than the price of Unifi 5Mbps, but only getting 12GB of peak data quota, which only good enough to last for 3 weeks at most.  You can try to inquire about Umobile. I heard their mobile broadband rate (cost/GB) is cheaper than YES 4G.

You're lucky. There are 3 owners wanting to subscribe to UNIFI in my street. My neighbor went to the TM Centre to inquire and was told that a new terminal box (for 8 more ports) will be installed in October. Today is already 29 October and I still don't see anything yet. May be TM means October 2016 !!!
